Respondents. Mr. S.S. Sayyed for the Applicant Mr. Sagar A. Joshi i/b S.M. Oak for the Respondents 1 to 2. CORAM; A.P. DESHPANDE, J. DATED; 22ND AUGUST, 2008. P.C.: 1. By the present Application, the applicants who are not parties to the Writ Petition are seeking directions to set aside the order passed by this court dated 9-2-2007 allowing the petitioners to withdraw the Writ Petition. According to the present applicants, their cause was being espoused by the petitioners and thus the applicants would suffer on account of withdrawal of the Writ Petiiton. The petitioner had sought permission to withdraw the Writ Petition and this Court had granted permission and disposed of the Writ Petition as withdrawn. The Petitioners have 2 a right either to prosecute or withdraw the Writ Petition. The present applicants do not have any legal right to compel the petitioners to prosecute the petition. The present application is thus wholly misconceived. The application is therefore rejected. (A.P. DESHPANDE, J.)
