Present:- Sri Sarvesh Agarwal, Advocate for the petitioners. Sri Gopal K. Verma, Advocate for the respondent. Hon’ble Sudhanshu Dhulia, J. (Oral) Heard learned counsels for the parties at length. The petitioners were defendants in the suit which was filed by the respondent for Permanent Injunction being Suit No. 27 of 2004 before the Civil Judge (Junior Division), Ramnagar, District Nainital. The suit is still pending since 2004. During the pendency of the aforesaid suit, an application for temporary injunction was moved by the plaintiff/respondent. This application was allowed by the trial court vide its order dated 31.5.2004 holding that there is prima facie case in favour of the plaintiff/respondent. The order dated 31.5.2004 of the trial court was challenged belatedly before the learned District Judge. This application was, however, dismissed vide order dated 7.6.2005, as it was barred by limitation. Hence, the present writ petition. Therefore, without exercising any opinion on the merits and demerits of the case, in the interest of justice no interference is being made by this Court at this stage, however, the trial court is directed to expedite the suit being No. 27 of 2004 pending before it, expeditiously, but in any case within six months from today. Learned counsels for the parties also agree 2 to this. They undertake that they will not seek unnecessary adjournments in this matter. The writ petition is disposed of with the aforesaid directions.
