THIS PETITION, COMING ON FOR ORDERS, THIS DAY,
R.DEVDAS J., MADE THE FOLLOWING:
ORDER
R. DEVDAS J., (ORAL):
During the course of these proceedings, the
respondent has filed an affidavit stating that the
respondent has questioned the order passed by the
Karnataka State Wakf Tribunal in CRP No.200082/2023
before the learned Single Judge. It is stated that being
aggrieved by the judgment and decree dated 23.12.2020,
the respondent filed a petition in Civil Miscellaneous
No.5/2022 before the Karnataka State Wakf Tribunal,
Kalaburagi. But the same was dismissed by order dated
26.09.2022. Thereafter, a writ petition in
NC: 2023:KHC-K:8878-DB
W.P.No.100257/2023 was filed by the respondent before
the High Court of Karnataka, Dharwad Bench on a wrong
presumption that the matter arose out of the Koppal and
therefore, the jurisdiction would lie before the High Court
of Karnataka, Dharwad Bench. However, having realised
that the jurisdiction lies with this Court, the said writ
petition was withdrawn with liberty to file a fresh petition
before this Court. A Civil Revision Petition in CRP
No.200082/2023 has been filed before this Court.
2. On the previous date of hearing, learned
Counsel for the complainant had submitted that the said
Civil Revision Petition was also dismissed for non-
compliance of office objections on 13.10.2023. However,
learned Counsel for the respondent has clarified that by
order dated 18.11.2023, learned Single Judge allowed
I.A.No.2/2023 and recalled the order dated 13.10.2023.
3. Having regard to the fact that the respondent
has challenged the original order passed by the Karnataka
State Wakf Tribunal, which order was passed in favour of
NC: 2023:KHC-K:8878-DB
the complainant herein, unless the Civil Revision Petition is
disposed of, the respondent will not be in a position to
pass any orders as was directed by the learned Single
Judge.
4. In that view of the matter, the contempt
proceedings stand closed granting liberty to the petitioner
to contest the matter before the learned Single Judge in
CRP No.200082/2023.
5. Needless to observe that liberty, if need be,
shall be reserved to the complainant herein to revive this
contempt petition, if the Civil Revision Petition filed at the
hands of the respondent is dismissed.
