JUSTICE S.D. ANAND. Present : Mr. Aman Bansal, Advocate, for the petitioner. *** S.D. Anand, J. (Oral) C.M. No. 2232-CII of 2009 Allowed, as prayed for. C.R. No. 425 of 2009 The only grievance of the petitioner is with regard to the indefensible repeated deferment of consideration of a plea under Order VI Rule 17 CPC which was filed by him and which has not been disposed of by the learned Trial Court for the last number of dates. The only relief sought is for a direction to the learned C.R. No. 425 of 2009 Trial Court to dispose of that plea immediately and also dispose of the suit itself within a time bound frame. The petition shall stand disposed of in limine with a direction to the learned Trial Court to dispose of the pending amendment application on the very next date itself. The suit shall also be disposed of within a period of one year from today. The acknowledgement (of copy of this order) issued by the concerned Judicial Officer shall be forwarded to the Registry of this Court. Learned District Judge concerned shall himself maintain a tab to ensure that the case is disposed of by aforementioned period. January 27, 2009 ( S.D. Anand ) vkd Judge 2
