NO. 37088 OF 2004 -------------------------------------------- Dated this the 8th day of July, 2009 JUDGMENT Counsel for the petitioner reported that he has no instruction in the matter and the file is taken away by the petitioner. Counsel for the contesting respondents submitted that the prayer is only for direction to the forest authorities not to proceed with application filed by the respondent for restoration of land based on Tribunal's order because suit filed by the petitioner for partition is pending. I do not think there is any need for this Court to consider the matter because if required civil court has power to pass appropriate orders in pending suit. W.P. is accordingly dismissed. (C.N.
