Respondents. ----------- 5. 01.04.2010 Both these contempt applications arise out of interim order dated 27.9.1999 passed in CWJC No. 8479 2 of 1999. In view of the conflicting claims of the parties with regard to interpretation of the order of status quo, this court instead of continuing with the contempt proceedings would find it more appropriate that writ petition itself is disposed of. Accordingly, both these applications are disposed of with an observation that it is open to the parties to move appropriate court where the said writ petition is pending for its early disposal.
