DATE : 6 th January, 2009 Perused the contents of the communication dated 12th of December, 2008 issued by the 4th Joint Civil Judge, Senior Division, Nagpur, to this Court. It appears that by the judgment dated 20/6/2008, in Appeal Against Order No. 99/1996, this Court had directed the executing Court to decide the proceedings in Special Darkhast Nos. 156/1995 and 118/1995, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of writ from this Court. By the communication dated 12/12/2006, the 4th Joint Civil Judge, Senior Division, Nagpur, has sought for a further time of six months. Further time of six months cannot be 2 granted as, by the judgment dated 20/6/2008, this Court had granted only three months' time for deciding the Special Darkhasts. However, for the reasons stated in the communication dated 12/12/2008, time to decide the special darkhasts is extended by a period of three months from today. The Registry to communicate this order to the 4th Joint Civil Judge, Senior Division, Nagpur, immediately. C.A. No. 9316/2008 Heard the learned counsel for the applicant. It appears that by an ad interim order dated 25/10/1996, this Court had directed the parties to maintain status quo. During the pendency of the Appeal Against Order, the order of status quo continued to operate. The Appeal Against Order was decided by the judgment dated 20/6/2008. This Court had directed the executing Court to decide the special darkhasts within a period of three months from the date of receipt of writ from this Court and it further directed the parties to maintain status quo for a period of 3 three months only. It appears that the executing Court has not decided the Special Darkhasts and has, by the communication dated 12/12/2008, sought further time to decide the Special Darkhasts. The time has been extended by a period of three months from today. In this background, it is necessary to direct the parties to maintain the status quo till the Special Darkhasts are decided by the executing Court. The prayer made in the civil application is granted in the aforesaid terms. Civil application is allowed and disposed of. JUDGE RMP
