MC 3137/2010 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE ASOK POTSANGBAM Heard Dr B Ahmed, learned counsel for the applicant and Ms B Bhuyan, learned cou nsel for the respondent- writ petitioner. This application has been filed by the applicant praying for vacation / modification / alteration of the order dated 10.5.2010 passed by this Court in WP(C) No 2658/2010. In WP(C) No 2658/2010, while issuing notice on 10.5.2010 returnable with in three weeks, the parties were directed maintain status on the fishery till th e returnable date. End of three weeks fell on 31.5.2010, meaning thereby that th e interim order passed on 10.5.2010 had come to an end on the returnable date, i e, on 31.5.2010. On perusal of records of WP(C) No 2658/2010, I do not find any order ext ending the aforesaid interim order dated 10.5.2010. Therefore, the operation of the interim order shall be deemed to have come to an end on 31.5.2010. In simila r nature of case, the Apex Court in Dr Luis Proto Barbosa Vs Union of India, rep orted in AIR 1992 SC 1812, while interpreting the expression List the matter o n 30th October, 1990. In the meantime, status quo as on today will continue , he ld that the operation of the interim order was only upto 30.10.1990. In other wo rds, the expression makes it clear as to when the interim order is to start oper ation and as to when the order will end of its operation. In the instant case, t he interim order dated 10.5.2010 is meant to operate only till the next date fix ed by this Court which fell on 31.5.2010. In that view of the matter, in the abs ence of any order passed by this Court extending the aforesaid interim order, th ere is no interim order beyond 31.5.2010, which is to be vacated. Accordingly, this Misc Case stands closed.
