1 wp 9778.11 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY BENCH AT AURANGABAD WRIT PETITION NO. 9778 OF 2011 Limbraj Shamrao Kale .. Petitioner Versus The State of Maharashtra and others .. Respondents Shri A. R. Devkate, Advocate for the Petitioner. Shri N. H. Borade, A. G. P. for the Respondent/State. CORAM : S. V. GANGAPURWALA, J. DATE : 19TH DECEMBER, 2011. PER COURT : . The petitioner impugns the order passed by the Additional Commissioner granting stay vide order dated 30 th November, 2011. Vide the said order the Additional Commissioner has kept the hearing on stay on 21.12.2011 and the stay is also granted only till 21 st December, 2011. 2. Shri Devkate, the learned counsel for the petitioner submits that, in fact there is no order. Only an endorsement is made on roznama. Because of said order of stay the problem is 2 wp 9778.11 being created in the functioning of the Panchayat. Even the petitioner had filed an application on the said date before the Additional Commissioner, but no orders are passed and only endorsement is made. The learned counsel submits that the stay could not have been granted without assigning any reason. 3. No doubt, the order of stay appears to have been passed on roznama. It has been observed by the learned Additional Commissioner that the respondent is absent. I may not enter into the dispute about the respondent being absent or not as contended by the petitioner. Suffice is to observe that the next date for hearing on the stay is fixed on 21 st December, 2011. On the said date the petitioner can put forth his case before the Additional Commissioner, who would consider the same on its own merits. 4. In view of above the writ petition is dismissed, however, with no order as to costs. The additional Commissioner shall deal with the application for stay and the appeal expeditiously. [ S. V.
