HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B. PRAKASH RAO C.R.P.No. 1314 of 2010 Date: 27-01-2011 Between: M/s. Radhika Travels and another ……. Petitioners and M/s. State Bank of India and another ……… Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B. PRAKASH RAO C.R.P.No. 1314 of 2010 ORDER: This Civil Revision Petition has been filed challenging the order, dated 09-02-2010 passed in I.A.No.2483 of 2009 in O.S.No.53 of 2009 on the file of the III Senior Civil Judge, City Civil Court, Secunderabad. Heard both sides. The only question involved is whether the issue of jurisdiction is to be decided as a preliminary issue and to be taken up along with the other issues. Having heard the counsel and also on perusal of the material available on record, it is seen that the issue certainly pertains to that of the jurisdiction having regard to the location of the property. Therefore, it cannot be avoided nor can be afforded to be clubbed with the other issues, lest the entire trial would be in vain. In view of the same, the Civil Revision Petition is allowed. The order, dated 09-02-2010 passed in I.A.No.2483 of 2009 is set aside. The matter is remitted back to the Court below directing to take up the Application and decide the issue of jurisdiction as a preliminary issue after giving notice and opportunity to both sides. No order as to costs. _________________ B. PRAKASH RAO, J Date: 27-01-2011 YCR
