IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO.377 OF 2007 Solapur Municipal Corporation & ors. ..... Petitioners V/s. Subhash Ramchandra Tathe ...... Respondent Mr.M.V.Jadhav i/b Nitin Jamadar, Advocate, for the Petitioner. Ms.Manjiri Parasnis i/b G.S.Godbole, for the Respondent. CORAM : P.B.MAJMUDAR, J. DATED : JULY 25, 2008. P.C. 1. On July 26, 2008, this matter was adjourned for today, as the learned counsel for the respondent wanted to ascertain whether the matter is settled between the parties. The learned counsel for the petitioner states that the matter is already settled and he wants to withdraw the petition. The learned counsel for the respondent states that she has not received any instructions in this behalf from his client. However, in my view, when the Advocate for the petitioner himself wants to withdraw the petition on his own statement that the matter is settled, the petitioner should be permitted to withdraw this petition on his own statement that the matter is settled, without expressing any opinion on factual aspect. 2 2. The petitioner is accordingly permitted to withdraw the matter whether it is settled or not. The petition accordingly stands disposed of as withdrawn. 3. The learned Advocate for the petitioner has placed on record a copy of the so-called settlement. Copy of the so-called settlement has been given to the learned Advocate for the respondents. The said document is kept on record and marked Exh.X for identification. It is clarified that other side stated that she is not accepting the fact that the matter is settled. ( P.B.MAJMUDAR, J. )
