No. 224 OF 2007 ................................................................................... Dated this the 15th June, 2007 J U D G M E N T H.L. Dattu, C.J.: Questioning the correctness or otherwise of the interim order passed by this court in W.P.(C) 32539 of 2006 dated 23rd January, 2007, the petitioner in the Writ Petition has preferred this Writ Appeal. 2. This Court while entertaining the Writ Appeal has passed the following order: “ Learned Government Pleader takes notice for respondent Nos. 1 to 4. Mr. M.P. Ashok kumar takes notice for respondent No.5 . Mr. M.K. Chandramohan Das takes notice for respondent No.6. Status quo be maintained for a period of one week. ” 4. Status quo order, granted earlier, was extended by this court from time to time. 5. Today, when the matter is posted for further orders, all the counsel appearing for the parties to the lis, would submit that the interim order granted by this Court may be continued till the Writ Petition is finally disposed of by this court. They further seek leave of this court to request the learned single Judge to hear the Writ Petition out of turn and pass appropriate orders. In our opinion, the submission so made by the counsel is not only fair but also justifiable. Therefore, the request is W.A. No. 224 OF 2007 2 granted. It will be in the interest of all the parties to the list. Therefore the following: O R D E R i) Writ Appeal is disposed of. ii) Interim order granted by this court in this Writ Appeal shall continue till the Writ Petition filed by the appellant is finally disposed of. iii) Liberty is reserved to the appellant and also to the respondents to make appropriate application before the learned single Judge for hearing the Writ Petition out of turn. We only say, if such a request is made, the learned single Judge may consider the same in accordance with law. iv) All other contentions of the parties are left open. I.A. 371 of 2007 is also disposed of. Ordered accordingly. H.L. DATTU, CHIEF JUSTICE. K.T. SANKARAN, JUDGE. lk
