O R D E R

[Order of the Court was made by M.SUNDAR, J.,] When the captioned 'Writ Petition' {hereinafter 'WP' for the sake of brevity} was taken up, Mr.Sriram, learned counsel representing counsel on record Mr.J.Hariharan of M/s.KV Law Firm sought leave of this Court to withdraw the captioned 'Writ Petition' {'WP'} but made a plea to preserve all Page Nos.2/6

rights and contentions of writ petitioner to pursue a suit viz., O.S.No.183 of 2022 on the file of the Principal District Munsif Court, Salem which has been filed by writ petitioner's father inter alia against R6 [N.Ranganathan], R7 [N.Sathiyamoorthy] and others, saying so, learned counsel has made an endorsement in the case file and a scanned reproduction of endorsement is as follows:

2. Captioned WP disposed of as withdrawn / closed albeit with preservation of rights qua suit being O.S.No.183 of 2022 on the file of the Principal District Munsif Court, Salem. Though obvious, for the sake of specificity, we make it clear that all rights and contentions of defendants in the suit are also preserved.

3. Learned Principal District Munsif, Salem shall continue with the suit (next listing date is 09.01.2025) untrammeled by this withdrawal. In other words as regards the suit, Civil Court shall proceed on its own merits and in accordance with law. We find that there is no whisper about the suit in the support affidavit qua captioned WP. However, considering the nature of submissions made, we refrain from imposing costs in this case. (M.S.,J.)
