IN O.S.NO. 5809/2013 ON THE FILE OF THE III ADDITIONAL CITY
CIVIL & SESSIONS JUDGE, BANGALORE DISMISISNG I.A.NO.1 FILED
UNDER ORDER 39 RULE 1 & 2 OF CPC AND ALLOWING I.A.NO. 8
FILED UNDER ORDER 39,, RULE 4 R/W SECTION 151 OF CPC.
THIS APPEAL COMING ON FOR HEARING THIS DAY, THE
COURT DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
JUDGMENT
This appeal filed by the plaintiffs - petitioners is directed
against the impugned order dated 25.11.2013 passed in
O.S.No.5809/2013 by the trial court, dismissing the application
I.A.1 filed by them under Order 39 Rules 1 and 2 CPC and
thereby allowing I.A.8 filed by respondents 1 to 3 - defendants.
2. On 09.12.2013, the co-ordinate Bench of this Court
passed the following order:-
"Issue emergent notice to respondent Nos.5 to
7. Sri Krishna J.C., learned counsel undertakes to file vakalathanama on behalf of respondent No.4.
Appellant counsel is also permitted to take out notice on learned Advocates appearing for respondent Nos.5 to 7 before the Trial Court.
Interim order granted earlier by Trial Court which was in force as on 25.11.2013, shall continue for a period of four weeks.
Appellant counsel as ordered hereinabove, to file an acknowledgment for having served on learned Advocates appearing for respondent Nos.5 to 7 before Trial Court within three days from today, failing which Registry is directed to post this matter for dismissal of appeal against respondent Nos.5 to 7 on 13.12.2013.
List this matter on 17.12.2013".
The said interim order has been extended from time to time
and continues to remain in force even as on today.
3. In view of the fact that the said interim order has
continued to remain in force for more than seven years, I
deem it fit and proper to dispose of this appeal by issuing
certain directions.
4. In the result, I pass the following:-
ORDER
(i) Appeal is disposed of.

I.A.No.1 in O.S.No.5809/2013 is hereby set aside.
(iii) The interim order dated 09.12.2013 passed by the
co-ordinate Bench of this Court shall continue to remain in
force till disposal of the suit.
(iv) The trial court is directed to dispose of the suit on or
before 30.06.2021 in accordance with law and without being
influenced by the observations and findings recorded in the
impugned order.
(v) All rival contentions between the parties are hereby
kept open and no opinion is expressed on the same.
