1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO.1294 OF 2008 Godi Kamgar Coop.Housing Society Ltd. & Ors. .. Petitioners Versus K.T.Pingulkar & Ors. .. Respondents Mr.M.M.Vashi for petitioners Mrs.Mhaispurkar, A.G.P. for State. CORAM : S.C.DHARMADHIKARI, J. DATE : 26th February 2008 P.C. . This writ petition is directed against an order passed by the lower appellate court. It is admittedly an interim order and the main 2 appeal/revision is pending before the Maharashtra State Coop.Appellate Court. 2. Some of the parties to the revision are before this Court. However, the others are yet to be issued any notice. The complaint is that pendency of the proceedings before the Coop.Appellate Court has resulted in the buildings, which are ready for occupation, lying vacant and unoccupied. The request is that some interim arrangement be allowed to be made without prejudice to the rights of both sides including drawal of the lots for allotment of Tenaments. In my view, instead of issuing notice to the concerned respondents, summoning them, hearing and trying to work out a workable arrangement during the pendency of the proceedings before the Maharashtra Coop.Appellate Court would entail in further delaying the proceedings. Instead, interest of justice would be sub-served if the Maharashtra State Appellate Court is directed to 3 dispose of the pending appeal as expeditiously as possible and before 31st March 2008. All parties to appear before the said Court on 7th March 2008 and thereafter the concerned Member or Chairman shall take up this appeal and dispose of the same within the above stipulated period. 3. Needless to state that if by any reason the post of President is vacant or that the incumbent is yet to take charge, then, the Member concerned who is either presiding as in-charge President or is otherwise available shall take up this appeal. All contentions of both sides on merits are expressly kept open. (S.C.Dharmadhikari, J)
