Madan, Sr. Adv., with S. Jain i/by Kanga & Co. for respondent no. 2. CORAM : P.B.MAJMUDAR & A.A.SAYED, JJ. DATE : 1st APRIL, 2011 2 lpa64-11 P.C. This Letters Patent Appeal is directed against the order of the learned Single Judge dated March 14, 2011 passed in Writ Petition No. 2051 of 2011. By the impugned order, the learned Single Judge while admitting the writ petition of the present appellant has made the rule returnable on 3.5.2011. However, the learned Single Judge has declined to pass interim order on the ground that there was no interim order operating since long. We are not inclined to interfere with the order of the learned Single Judge. However, it is pointed out that there is another petition being Writ Petition No. 2050 of 2011 in which a point regarding joint membership is also raised and such type of matter is required to be decided expeditiously. The learned Single Judge has rightly made the rule returnable on 3.5.2011. Though the learned Single Judge has not passed any specific order, in our view, both the matters are required to be heard together as at least one of the point regarding joint membership is common in both the writ petitions. Considering the same, we are not inclined to entertain this appeal which is against purely an interlocutory order. We direct that Writ Petition No. 2050 of 2011 is to be placed along with Writ Petition No. 2051 of 2011 in the first week of May, 2011. The learned Single Judge may dispose of both the matters together as early as possible and preferably before 1st July, 2011.. 2. Subject to what is stated above, Letters Patent Appeal stands disposed of. 3 lpa64-11 3. In view of the disposal of the Letters Patent Appeal, Civil Application No. 85 of 2011 also stands disposed of. (A.A.SAYED, J.) (P.B.MAJMUDAR, J.)
