Subsequent thereto, W.P.No.8855 of 2004 was filed. In view of the interim order passed in W.P.No.6820 of 2004, same interim order was passed in W.P.No.8855 of 2004 also. In W.P.No.8855 of 2004 direction was to hear the writ petition along with W.P.No.6820 of 2004. Learned single Judge has, by the order impugned in the present appeal, on 10th November, 2004 vacated the interim order in W.P.No.6820 of 2004 whereas in W.P.No.8855 of 2004, the interim order is continuing and direction has been issued to take up the miscellaneous application also along with the main writ petition for hearing. Both the writ petitions are pending before the same learned single Judge. In order to maintain parity, in similar matters, of passing orders, usually matters are taken up before the same court and when direction is to take up the two matters together, there cannot be a different procedure followed of vacating the order in one case and continuing the interim order in the other case. In that view of the matter, the impugned order passed by learned single Judge on 10th November, 2004 deserves to be set aside with direction to take up both the writ petitions together and first take up the vacate applications in both the writ petitions for consideration and pass orders simultaneously in both the cases. Accordingly, writ appeal is allowed, impugned order is set aside and learned single Judge will proceed to hear and dispose of WVMP No.1763 of 2004 and WVMP No.1762 of 2004 filed in W.P.Nos.6820 and 8855 of 2004 respectively simultaneously. Parties to appear before the learned single Judge on 8-2-2005. ___________________ DEVINDER GUPTA, CJ 30-12-2004 _____________________ M.NARAYANA REDDY, J Tvr To 1.
