****
This Writ Petition is filed under Article 227 of the
Constitution of India, praying to set aside the order dated
28.01.2017 passed in M.A.No.61/2011 on the file of the I
Additional District and Sessions Judge, Bangalore Rural District,
Bangalore, vide Annexure-A.
This Writ Petition coming on for Preliminary Hearing in 'B'
Group, through Physical Hearing/Video Conferencing Hearing,
this day, the Court made the following:
ORDER
The present respondent No.1 is the plaintiff in
O.S.No.74/2010 on the file of the learned II Additional
Senior Civil Judge, at Bangalore Rural District, Bangalore,
(hereinafter for brevity referred to as "the Trial Court"),
W.P.No.5851/2017
which suit was for the relief of partition and other incidental
relief. The present petitioners are defendants 1 and 2 in
the said suit. Respondents 2 and 3 are defendants 3 and 4
in the said suit.
2. Plaintiff's I.A.No.1 filed under Order XXXIX Rules 1
and 2 of Code of Civil Procedure came to be rejected by the
trial court by the order dated 31.05.2011. Aggrieved by
the same, the plaintiff preferred an appeal in
M.A.No.61/2011 under Order 41 Rule 1 of Code of Civil
Procedure in the court of the I Additional District and
Sessions Judge, Bangalore Rural District (hereinafter for
brevity referred to as "the District Court") and the said
appeal by the Judgment of the District Court dated
28.01.2017 came to be allowed and respondents 1 and 2
were restrained from alienating the suit schedule property
till the disposal of the suit in O.S.No.74/2010 pending
before the trial court. Aggrieved by the said order, the said
respondents 1 and 2 in the District Court have preferred the
present petition.
W.P.No.5851/2017
3. Respondent No.1 is appearing through his counsel
and respondents 2 and 3 though have been served with the
notice have remained absent and when the matter is taken
up today, learned counsel for the petitioners submits that
he would not press the present writ petition provided the
respondent No.1 who is the plaintiff in the trial court would
co-operate with the trial court in early disposal of original
suit which suit is now at the stage of recording evidence in
the matter. He apprehends that the plaintiff may file
application after application to stall the proceedings. Thus,
if the plaintiff undertakes that he co-operates for the early
disposal of the original suit, he would not press the present
writ petition.
4. Learned counsel for respondent No.1 submits that
the plaintiff has not filed any unnecessary application except
an application seeking impleading of some subsequent pre-
suit agreement holder which was very much necessary and
genuine. However, learned counsel for respondent No.1
W.P.No.5851/2017
submits he would co-operate by all means with the trial
court for speedy disposal of the original suit.
In the light of the above, since both the parties have
agreed to assist with the trial court for the speedy disposal
of O.S.No.74/2010 pending between them in the trial court
as submitted by learned counsel for petitioners, the present
petition stands disposed of as not pressed. However, since
the original suit is of the year 2010, as such, 12 years old
suit, the early disposal of the original suit in accordance
with law, however not later than six months from today
would be highly appreciated.
