IN THE HIGH COURT OF BOMBAY AT GOA CIVIL APPLICATION NO. 183 OF 2011 IN APPEAL UNDER ARBITRATION ACT NO. 4 OF 2011 SINOM (HONG KONG) LTD., ... Applicant Versus DAMODAR MANGALJI AND COMPANY LTD AND 2 ORS., ... Respondents Shri Atul Rajadhyaksha, Senior Advocate with Shri Z. Barucha and Shri D. Lawande, Advocates for the Applicant. Shri Rahul Narichania with Shri A.J. Kenkare, Advocates for Respondent No.1. Coram:- F. M. REIS, J. Date:- 11th November, 2011 P.C.: Heard Shri Rajadhyaksha, learned Senior Counsel appearing for the applicant and Shri Narichania, learned Counsel appearing for respondent no.1. 2. After hearing the learned Counsel and on perusal of the records, I find that by the present application, the applicant is seeking to restrain respondent no.1 from adopting any steps or taking any measure pursuant to respondent no.1's letter dated 21/07/2011. This Court by order dated 29/07/2011 protected the petitioner by an ad interim order in terms of clause (b) of the application. 3. There is no dispute that the appeal challenging the judgment passed by the learned District Judge has been admitted by this Court. In case any arbitration proceedings are initiated when the appeal is pending before this Court, the appeal itself may become infructuous, which is not disputed by both the learned Counsel. Hence, case is made out to confirm the ad-interim order dated 29/07/2011 until disposal of the above appeal. 4. In view of the above, civil application is disposed of accordingly. F. M. REIS, J. NH
