1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH : NAGPUR WRIT PETITION NO. 1644 OF 2010 (Vinod P. Bhutad vs. Moreshwar B. Khanorkar & Ors.) Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's orders Court's or Judge's orders or directions and Registrar's orders. CORAM : B.P. DHARMADHIKARI, J. APRIL 08, 2010. Heard Shri Kalmegh, learned counsel for the petitioner. The petition is by sub-tenant and his application for intervention in suit filed by original landlord against his lessor (Nagpur Municipal Corporation) has been rejected. The contention of the learned counsel is, the petitioner was in possession and occupation of those premises since 1987 and business therein was the only source of livelihood. He contends that in such circumstances, when landlord has filed proceedings against Nagpur Municipal Corporation, in those proceedings, the petitioner is essential party. He further points out that Municipal authorities have in proceedings conducted before them, permitted the petitioner to intervene. The status of the petitioner is subordinate to that of his landlord and he, therefore, in litigation as filed, cannot claim any relief in independent capacity either against his landlord or against the lessor of his landlord. 2 No case is, therefore, made out warranting any interference in writ jurisdiction. Writ Petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. JUDGE *GS.
