CORAM: J.H.BHATIA, J. DATE : 12th February, 2008. DATE : 12th February, 2008. DATE : 12th February, 2008. P.C. P.C. P.C. 1. Heard learned Counsel for the parties. 2. This Appeal is preferred by the plaintiffs against refusal by the trial Court to grant ad-interim relief, while the Notice of Motion is still pending and is posted on 20.2.2008. 3. In my considered opinion, it will be appropriate for the defendants-respondents to file reply so that the Notice of Motion itself maybe heard and disposed of on its own merits. In view of the fact that the agreement for putting up hoardings was entered into on 24.9.2001 and right of termination of further renewal was reserved by the respondents, I am not inclined to interfere in the impugned order. 4. Therefore, the Appeal stands disposed of with the following directions :- The respondents shall file reply to the Notice of Motion before the trial Court before the next date i.e. 20.2.2008 and the trial Court shall hear and dispose of the Notice of Motion within 15 days thereafter. 5. As the Appeal itself is disposed of, the C.A. does not survive and stands disposed of accordingly. Parties to act on authenticated copy of this order. (J.H.BHATIA,J.) (J.H.BHATIA,J.) (J.H.BHATIA,J.)
