The order under challenge rejects an application made by the Petitioner which was filed praying that the evidence of the Respondent - Plaintiff be closed. 2. The impugned order is interlocutory and I do not see any reason to interfere with the same at this stage. All that the order permits is the continuation of the Suit and granting liberty to the Respondent - Plaintiff to proceed with her claim. 3. While it is true that the issues are framed and the matter is at the stage of recording evidence, yet, while rejecting the Application of the Petitioner, the Court could have made an appropriate order balancing the rights of parties. Accordingly, while not interfering with the :2: impugned order, it is directed that the hearing of the Special Civil Suit shall be expedited and an endeavour to dispose off the same as expeditiously as possible and in any event by 31st December 2009, shall be made. Petition dismissed subject to above. (S.C. (S.C. (S.C. DHARMADHIKARI,J.) DHARMADHIKARI,J.) DHARMADHIKARI,J.)
