1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE CIVIL JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO.5029 OF 2008 -------------------------------------------------------------- Office Notes, Office Memoranda Court’s or Judge’s of Coram, appearances, Court’s Orders orders or directions and Registrar’s orders. ------------------------------------------------------------- Mr.Y.S.Jahagirdar i/b.Mr.R.V.Bansode for the petitioner. Mrs.S.S.Bhende, AGP for respondent no.18. CORAM : R.V. MORE, J. DATED : 14.07.2008 P.C. Heard Mr.Y.S.Jahagirdar, the learned senior counsel for the petitioner and Mrs.Bhende, the learned AGP for respondent no.18. The petitioner takes exception to the order passed in his appeal by the State Government as intimated by the Under Secretary which is exhibited at Exhibit "N" at page 117. By this order, the petitioner was intimated that his appeal is not maintainable. There is no dispute that the 2 appeal before the State Government arises out of vacation of interim stay by the Divisional Joint Registrar of Cooperative Societies, Pune Division, Pune in Appeal No.3090/08. It is also not disputed that this appeal is still pending before the Divisional Joint Registrar. The petitioner challenges the legality and validity of a resolution passed in the General Body meeting of respondent no.1 on 21.4.2008. Initially the ad-interim stay was granted by the Divisional Joint Registrar to the implementation of the aforesaid resolution by order dated 25.4.2008, but later on the same was vacated by order dated 3.5.2008. As stated above, this order was challenged by way of appeal before the State Government. It is admitted by the learned counsel appearing for the respective parties that there is no stay to the implementation of the aforesaid resolution with effect from 3 3.5.2008. In view of the above, in my considered view, interest of justice will serve by directing the Divisional Joint Registrar to dispose of the petitioner’s appeal expeditiously. I, therefore, dispose of the petition by the following order: (1) The Divisional Joint Registrar, Cooperative Societies, Pune Division, Pune is directed to hear and dispose of petitioner’s appeal being Appeal No.3090/08 as expeditiously as possible and in any case within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of this order. (2) It is made clear that all points and contentions are kept open. Petition stands disposed of in the above terms. [R.V. [R.V. [R.V. MORE,J.] MORE,J.] MORE,J.]
