1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT MUMBAI CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO.9816 OF 2009 Dilip Mahadev Pawar .. Petitioner. Vs. The State of Maharashtra & Ors. .. Respondents. Mr.S.P.Kadam for the petitioner. Mr.R.M.Patne A.G.P. for the State. CORAM : D.B. BHOSALE, J. DATED : 25TH NOVEMBER, 2009 P.C. . Heard learned counsel for the parties. 2. This petition arises from the orders passed by revenue authorities in RTS proceedings. The Additional Commissioner, Pune Division, Pune, while disposing of the revision has issued the following direction: “The revision application is allowed and the order passed by the Additional Collector, Satara on 6/8/2005 in RTS/II/A/173/2004 is set aside. In turn, the order passed by the Sub-Divisional Officer, Satara on 10/9/2004 in respect of the M.E. No.7636 of village Kondhave, Tal.Satara is confirmed, subject to the final outcome of the pending civil suit No.606/94.” 3. Admittedly, the civil suit is pending in the court at Satara. In view thereof I am not inclined to interfere with the order 2 impugned in the present writ petition and I am satisfied that the following order shall meet the ends of justice: The civil court shall decide the suit (R.C.S.No.606 of 1994) filed by the petitioner on merit in accordance with law and uninfluenced by the observations made in this proceedings by the revenue authorities. It is open to the petitioner to file an application for appropriate interim relief, if he so desires, in the suit. If such an application is filed, same may be considered on merits in accordance with law. While making this observation I shall not be understood to have examined merits of the case. The orders passed by the revenue authorities as observed by the Additional Commissioner would be subject to outcome of the suit filed by the petitioner. It would be open to the petitioner to approach the revenue authorities afresh for effecting necessary changes in the revenue record on the basis of final judgment in the suit. With these observations the writ petition is disposed of. (D. B. Bhosale, J.)
