O.P (C)No. 1739 of 2021
------------------------------------ ---------
Dated this the 13th day of March, 2023
ORDER
By order dated 11.10.2021, this Court had stayed the
operation of Ext.P12 order, to the extent the order vacated
the finding of the trial court that the affairs of the temple
are being managed by the Trust. However, it was made
clear that the interim order will not fetter the existing rights
of the respondent, as recognized by this Court in Exts.P8,
P9 and P10 judgments.
2. The respondent complains that, despite the above
direction, the petitioners are not permitting him to exercise
his rights. But, the respondent is precluded from moving
the Trial Court for prosecution because of stay of further
proceedings.
In the above background, I extend the interim order O.P.(C)No.1739 of 2021
dated 11.10.2021 for a period of six months. Nonetheless,
it is clarified that interim order will not stand in a way of
the respondent moving the Trial Court under Order 39 Rule
2A of the Code of Civil Procedure, for prosecution against
the persons who have allegedly violated the order dated
11.10.2021 passed by this Court.
