S.B. CIVIL CONTEMPT PETITION NO.281/2007. IN S.B. CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO.1680/2007. Shiv Mohan Sharma Vs. Shri Ashok Singhvi and others Date of order : 10/12/2007. HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE MOHAMMAD RAFIQ Shri Rajendra Prasad for the petitioner. Shri Harshvardhan Nandvana, Government Counsel. ****** Learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that the mining lease has been granted to the private respondents and they were allowed to excavate the minerals in violation of the status-quo order passed by this Court on 16/3/2007. In response to the querry of this court, learned counsel for the respondent candidly submitted that the interim-order aforesaid has since been vacated by the court against which so far no interim- order has been passed subsequently. In the facts of the case, I do not find any reason to proceed against the respondents particularly when basis of filing of the contempt petition itself has ceased to exist as status-quo order itself has been vacated. The contempt petition is therefore dismissed. The notices of contempt are hereby discharged. (MOHAMMAD RAFIQ), J. anil/-
