CORAM CORAM CORAM : ANOOP V. MOHTA,J. : ANOOP V. MOHTA,J. : ANOOP V. MOHTA,J. DATED DATED DATED : 16th February, 2008. : 16th February, 2008. : 16th February, 2008. P.C. P.C. P.C. . None for the Respondents, though served. Pending the suit there was an ad-interim protection in favour of the Petitioner. The suit was dismissed on 30/04/1994. The Petitioner, therefore, preferred an Appeal and the same is still pending. By order dated 15/07/2006 an application for interim protection was rejected. Therefore, the present Writ Petition. 2. As suit is in reference to ( 2 ) the property and as averred, there was an ad-interim relief of the said property and as this Court was also issued notice on 30/08/2006 directing the parties to maintain status-quo, I am of the view that the balance of convenience lies in favour of the Petitioner. To avoid further delay, therefore, in absence of any opposition, I am inclined to direct to maintain status-quo as ordered on 30/08/2006 which has been in force since then to continue pending the disposal of the Appeal. 3. The Writ Petition is disposed of, accordingly. [ANOOP [ANOOP [ANOOP V. V. V. MOHTA, J.] MOHTA, J.] MOHTA, J.]
