1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN JAIPUR BENCH, JAIPUR O R D E R S.B. Civil Writ Petition No.1048 of 2004 . Ashok Kumar Asawa son of Shri S.R. Asawa & Others VERSUS Additional District Judge No.1, Ajmer and Others Date of Order :::: 21/08/2009 Hon'ble Mr. Justice Dalip Singh Mr. Jitendra Singh, Advocate for Mr. Neeraj K. Tiwari, Counsel for the Petitioners. Mr. Sohan Lal Sharma, Advocate for Mr. Arvind Gupta, Counsel for the Respondents Per Court : Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the record as well as previous orders passed by this Court. This writ petition, arises out of an application for grant of temporary injunction restraining the respondents from demolishing the constructions said to have been raised by the petitioners. 2 It has been brought to the notice of this Court that the matter came up before the Division Bench also and the Division Bench of this Court vide order dated 15.10.2001 (Annexure-2) passed in D.B. Special Appeal (W) No.916/2001 has directed that the status-quo to be maintained in respect of the property in dispute. In this petition also, vide order dated 15.03.2004 an ex-parte interim stay order came to be passed directing the parties to maintain the status-quo, as it exists today (as on 15.03.2004). The aforesaid order has remained in force. Subsequently, it has come on record that D.B. Special Appeal (W) No.916/2001 came to be dismissed in default vide order dated 01.09.2008, which order has been placed on record by the Registry. Be that as it may, since the order of maintaining the status-quo has remained in force since 2004, I do not consider it proper to alter the status-quo at this stage. Expressing any opinion on the merits may tantamount to affecting the rights of either of the parties at trial. In the facts and circumstances of the present case, therefore, the order dated 15.03.2004 is made absolute to last till the disposal of the suit and a direction is issued to the learned trial Court to decide the matter expeditiously. However, this 3 order would be subject to any order that may be passed by the Division Bench, in case of the restoration of the D.B. Special Appeal (W) No.916/2001. The writ petition and the stay application are accordingly disposed of. (Dalip Singh) J. ashok/
