1 FARAD CONTINUATION SHEET No. IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH AT NAGPUR WRIT PETITION NO. 4222/2002 (RAMPYARIBAI WD/O SUKHDEO DAGA & 7 OTHERS VERSUS NEELADEVI WD/O NARAYANDAS JAKHOTIYA & 6 OTHERS) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, Court's or Judge's orders appearances, Court's orders of directions and Registrar's orders - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Shri R.M. Bhangde, counsel for the R-1 to 6. CORAM : SMT. VASANTI A. NAIK, J. DATE : NOVEMBER 28 , 2011 . By this petition, the petitioners have challenged the order passed by the 4th Ad-hoc Additional District Judge, Amravati on 14.10.2002 modifying the order passed by the trial Court restraining the defendants/respondents from disturbing possession of the plaintiffs-petitioners over the suit property. It appears that this Court has, by an order dated 26.11.2002, directed the parties to maintain status quo. Rule was issued in the petition on 27.01.2003 and the ad-interim relief directing the parties to maintain status quo was continued during the pendency of the petition. Hence, the status quo granted by this Court on 26.11.2002 is operational till today. Shri Bhangde, the learned counsel for the respondent nos.1 to 6, states that the civil suit is still pending and has not been decided by the trial Court. Hence, in the facts and circumstances of the case, since the petitioners have approached this Court against an interlocutory order and a status quo is operating in favour of 2 the petitioners till this date, it would be necessary to dispose of this writ petition by continuing the interim relief till the decision of the suit and directing the trial Court to decide the suit within a period of one year. Hence, in stead of deciding the writ petition on merits, in the interest of justice, the same is disposed of with a direction to the trial Court to decide Regular Civil Suit No.436/1998 within a period of One Year. The interim relief granted by this Court on 26.11.2002 to operate till the decision in the civil suit. The writ petition is disposed of accordingly with no order as to costs. Rule stands discharged.
