1 wp6975-11 jpc IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO. 6975 OF 2011 Balasaheb Appa Jadhav .. Petitioner Versus Sopan Appa Jadhav and others ... Respondents Mr. S.S. Patwardhan for the petitioner CORAM : R. Y. GANOO, J. DATED : 26th September, 2011 P.C. 1. 2. By this petition, the order dated 13th July, 2011 passed by the learned District Judge-3, Sangli in Regular Civil Appeal No. 69 of 2011 is questioned . 3. I have heard learned Advocate Mr. Patwardhan for the petitioner and perused the record including the impugned order. 4. After perusal of the record and hearing argument of the learned counsel for the petitioner, I see no reason to interfere in the impugned order dated 13th July, 2011. 5. I have noted the text of paragraph No.12 of the impugned order. It appears that the learned District Judge-3, Sangli is impressed by the fact that one respondent is 80 years old and he has specifically mentioned so in the said order so also to give proper hearing of the appeal. If this is so, surely an order is required to be passed by this Court, so that the Civil Appeal will be decided at an early date. 6. In view of the above, following order is passed. i. No interference is required in the impugned order 13th July, 2011 2 wp6975-11 passed by the learned District Judge-3, Sangli in Regular Civil Appeal No. 69 of 2011. ii. Learned District Judge shall hear and dispose of the Regular Civil Appeal No. 69 of 2011 as early as possible and preferably by 30th May, 2012. iii. The petition is disposed of in the above terms. iv. There shall be no order as to costs. (R. Y. GANOO, J.)
