CORAM : S.V.GANGAPURWALA, J. DATE : 28.09.2011. ORAL JUDGMENT : 1. Heard. 2. Rule. Rule returnable forthwith. With the consent of the parties, the petitions are taken up for final hearing. 3. The petitioner has filed a dispute before the Cooperative Court, Aurangabad. Along with the dispute, the petitioner also filed an application for temporary injunction. The present Respondents filed application U/s 9-A of the C.P.C. for framing of issue of jurisdiction as a preliminary issue. The present petitioner during the pendency of the same filed 9 W.P.No.7244/11 with connected W.Ps. application seeking interim orders till decision of Exh.5. The said application was allowed and the Cooperative Court directed both the parties to maintain statusquo. Aggrieved thereby, the present Respondents preferred appeal before the Cooperative Appellate Court. The said appeal is allowed. The Cooperative Appellate Court directed the Cooperative Court to decide the issue of jurisdiction U/s 9-A of the C.P.C. first before deciding Exh.5 and also vacated the order of statusquo. The said order is assailed in the present Writ Petitions. 4. Whenever an objection U/s 9-A of the C.P.C. is raised and the application for interim injunction is also pending then the issue of jurisdiction and the application for interim relief have to be decided simultaneously. The Cooperative Appellate Court has not adhered to the same. In light of that, the order impugned can not be sustained. 5. In light of the above, I pass the following order : The impugned order is quashed and set aside instead the same is modified as under : 10 W.P.No.7244/11 with connected W.Ps. (i) The Cooperative Court shall decide the issue of jurisdiction and Exh.5 filed by the petitioner simultaneously. (ii) Till then, the parties to maintain statusquo in respect of the suit properties. The trial Court shall decide the issue of jurisdiction and Exh.5 expeditiously and preferably within three (3) months from today. (iii) Rule made absolute in above terms. No costs.
