JUDGMENT

(The Order of the Court was made by The Hon'ble The Chief Justice) The petitioner failed to comply with the terms of the consent order passed on 04.03.2015 and consequently the interim injunction was vacated. The relevant portion of the order reads as under:

"4.The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner is willing to pay a sum of Rs.2,00,000/- (Rupees Two Lakhs only) before 10.00 a.m., tomorrow, i.e., 05.03.2015, i.e., before the commencement of auction and that the petitioner would also pay another sum of Rs.8,00,000/- (Rupees Eight Lakhs only) on or before 11.03.2015 and shall also pay the balance amount of Rs.9,08,699/- (Rupees Nine lakhs eight thousand six hundred ninety nine only) on or before 08.04.2015."

2. Learned counsel for the appellant seeks to contend that what was offered to be paid was only a sum of Rs.2,00,000/- and the remaining amount was directed to be paid by the Court. We unfortunately cannot read the order in the manner the learned counsel for the petitioner seeks to read. There is one continuing sentence consisting of other portions which records the offer to pay three different amounts at three different stages, which persuaded the court to grant the extraordinary relief of staying the auction one day before it was to be held. We may notice that the petitioner claims title in the property mortgaged by his mother stating that he was minor on the date when the mortgage took place. The said mortgage is stated to be without permission of the guardian Court. Even the title documents have not been placed before us to establish the nature of the title claimed by the appellant.

3. We are thus of the opinion that in any case, in view of there being an offer to pay and the Court having agreed to the same, there can not be breach of the same without justifiable cause. Other than saying the appellant is unable to pay, as recorded in the subsequent order, nothing else is stated. There is no reason to interfere with the impugned order.

4. The writ petition stands dismissed. No costs. Sd/- Assistant Registrar True Copy Sub Assistant Registrar Copy to:
