Mr.Amogh Karandikar i/b Khandeparkar & Associates, for the Petitioners. Mr.S.N.Tulaskar, for the Respondents. .......... CORAM : S.C.DHARMADHIKARI, J. Date : 02nd August, 2011. P.C.: 1 It appears that this matter is identical to other cases in which in the absence of the learned Presiding Officer at the Maharashtra Revenue Tribunal, the Writ Petitions were filed seeking interim orders pending the final disposal of the revision proceedings. In this case, while issuing the notice on this writ petition on 08.03.2011, ad-interim relief in terms of prayer clause (b) of the Writ Petition was granted with the correction as made on 18.03.2011. That order was continued from time to time. 2 Now a request is made on behalf of the Petitioners seeking leave to withdraw this Writ Petition with liberty to approach the Maharashtra Revenue Tribunal and pursue the revision proceedings which are stated to be placed on 22.09.2011 for hearing and final disposal. In these circumstances, it is further requested that the ad-interim order be continued pending the final disposal of the revision proceedings. 3 The learned counsel appearing for the Respondents, on the *2* wp.1941.11.913.sxw other hand, has argued that the petition may be dismissed as withdrawn, but the ad-interim order may not be continued, otherwise there is an apprehension that it will not be vacated in future as well. It will continue till the revision proceedings are disposed of, which may not be possible considering the present situation inasmuch as other than the President there are no appointments made to the posts of Members of the Maharashtra Revenue Tribunal at Mumbai. 4 Bearing in mind the peculiar fact situation of this case and considering that the revision proceedings are pending before the Maharashtra Revenue Tribunal, the interest of justice would be served if this Writ Petition is dismissed as withdrawn, but by continuing the ad- interim order passed by this Court till the hearing and final disposal of the said revision application. The grant as well as continuance of the ad- interim order is without prejudice to the rights and contentions of both parties. The revision application shall be decided uninfluenced by this order. All contentions of both sides are kept open. The Writ Petition is, accordingly, disposed of. No costs. (S.C. Dharmadhikari, J)
