IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH, AT HYDERABAD THURSDAY, THE SEVENTEENTH DAY OF SEPTEMBER, TWO THOUSAND AND NINE PRESENT: HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G.V.SEETHAPATHY C.C.No.90 OF 2009 Between: Nooka Satyanarayana and others …Petitioners A n d Smt.Raqya Bee and others …Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G.V.SEETHAPATHY C.C.No.90 OF 2009 ORDER: This contempt case is filed under Sections 10 to 12 of the Contempt of Courts Act seeking to punish respondents 1 to 13 for alleged violation of the orders dated 17-07-2008 in CRPMP.No.3754 of 2008 in CRPMP.No.2721 of 2008 in CRP.No.2051 of 2008 wherein this Court ordered maintenance of status quo as on 17-07-2008, the date on which the said order was passed. 2. The petitioners herein are respondents in the civil revision petition, which was filed by the respondents herein against the orders dated 28-04-2008 in I.A.No.1470 of 2008 in O.S.No.990 of 2007, on the file of the III Additional Chief Judge, City Civil Court, Hyderabad. 3. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned counsel for the respondents. Perused the records. 4. The petitioners herein filed the O.P under Section 9 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act for grant of injunction restraining the respondents from entering into development agreement or making any other arrangements or agreements with third parties in respect of the schedule property. Respondents 1 to 12 herein filed I.A.No.1470 of 2008 for interim direction and the trial Court by order dated 28-04-2008 directed that the respondents herein shall not proceed with the alteration of the property by making any constructions or excavation of trenches etc., without prejudice to their contentions in the O.P. It was further directed by the trial Court that respondents 1 to 12 shall file counter on 01-05-2008 and the matter will be heard on that day subject to availability of time. Aggrieved by the said order, the defendants filed C.R.P.No.2051 of 2008. This Court by order dated 17-07- 2008 in CRPMP.No.3754 of 2008 directed maintenance of status quo until further orders. Subsequently, the civil revision petition itself was heard and disposed of by order dated 01-08-2008 remitting the matter to the trial Court to dispose of the main case within a period of two weeks with a further direction that status quo as on that date shall be maintained for a period of two weeks giving liberty to the parties to argue all the questions before the trial Court. It is stated that subsequently the trial Court disposed of O.P.No.990 of 2007 by order dated 12-08- 2008 dismissing the said petition. Thus, final orders have been passed in the main case itself. 5. The present contempt case is filed alleging violation of the interim order of status quo granted on 17-07-2008 in CRPMP.No.3754 of 2008 stating that the respondents proceeded with the construction. There is absolutely no material placed before this Court to show that the respondents have violated the orders of status quo, except filing some photographs bearing the date 19-07-2008. From the said photographs, it cannot be discerned as to when the said constructions shown therein were made i.e., as to whether prior or subsequent to passing of orders of status quo on 17-07-2008. In fact, the said photographs do not also in any way indicate that they relate to the subject matter of the present proceedings. The petitioners have, therefore, failed to establish that the respondents have disobeyed willfully the orders of status quo passed by this Court on 17-07-2008 and the said allegation remains totally unsubstantiated. 6. In the result, the contempt case is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. _____________________ G.V.SEETHAPATHY, J 17TH September, 2009. Lrkm.
