THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE T. VINOD KUMAR
AND
THE HON'BLE SMT. JUSTICE P.SREE SUDHA
C.M.A.Nos.345, 346 and 348 of 2024
COMMON JUDGMENT:
(per Hon'ble Sri Justice T.Vinod Kumar)
These Civil Miscellaneous Appeals are filed against the common order
dt.14.10.2020 passed in I.A.Nos.821 of 2020, 820 of 2020 & 348 of 2020 in
O.S.No.61 of 2020.
2. Heard Sri J.Prabhakar, learned Senior Counsel, appearing on
behalf of Ms.Kanumuri Kalyani, learned counsel for the
petitioners/appellants, Sri C.Subba Rao, learned counsel representing
Sri Maddy Rajesh, learned counsel appearing for respondent Nos.1 and 2 and
Sri Kavali Srinivas, learned counsel appearing for respondent No.3. and
perused the record.
3. The relevant portion of the common order dt.14.10.2020 of the Court
below reads as under:
"The status quo orders referred to above shall be in force pending final disposal of the suit. The suit shall be disposed of as agreed upon between both the parties within a period of one year from the date of this understating order. It is made clear that the above order is made without prejudice to the rights and contents of both the parties."
4. Though it is contended by the learned Senior Counsel appearing on
behalf of the appellants that more than one year has passed by no progress
is made in the suit, as many parties are impleaded as defendants in the suit
subsequently and as such, the aforesaid suit filed by the
respondents/plaintiffs is not likely to be disposed of in the near future, much
less within a year, as noted in the order dt.14.10.2020, which has long
passed by and thereby, the status quo order coming in the way of the
appellants herein, and having regard to the relationship between the parties
to the original proceedings, this Court is of the view that instated of this
Court dealing with the matter on merits, and without expressing any opinion
on the merits of the matter, the appellants herein are to be directed to
approach the Court below seeking modification of the order dt.14.10.2020.
5. It is made clear that in the event of the appellants herein approaching
the Court below and filing any application seeking modification of the
aforesaid order dt.14.10.2020, the Court below shall consider the same in an
expeditious manner.
6. Subject to the above observation, the Civil Miscellaneous appeals are
disposed of. No order as to costs.
7. Pending miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall stand closed in the light of this final order.
