20.12.2021 Ct. 21 D/L 13 ab C.O. 89 of 2020 (Via Video Conference) Smt. Dola Dutta -VsSmt. Ashima Dutta & Ors.

Mr. Ram Krishna Chandra, ... for the petitioner Mr. Ram Krishna Chandra, learned advocate for the petitioner is present.

Record shows that the notice of this application has not been served on the opposite parties.

The petitioner by filing the present application under Article 227 of the Constitution of India has prayed for expeditious disposal of the Title Suit No. 291 of 2015, pending before the learned Judge, 12th Bench, City Civil Court at Calcutta.

The learned advocate for the petitioner submits that the learned Court below has been granting unnecessary adjournments and due to which, there is a delay in disposal of the case and such delay is causing hardship to the petitioner.

Having regard to the nature of relief claimed by the petitioner, being a prayer for expeditious disposal of the title suit, I do not find any need to serve notice of the present application on the opposite parties and it is not likely to cause any prejudice to the interest of the opposite parties. Therefore, service of notice upon the opposite parties is dispensed with.

The learned Judge, 12th Bench, City Civil Court at Calcutta, is requested to dispose of the Title Suit No. 291 of 2015, as expeditiously as possible and in any event, within a period of one year from the date of communication of this order, without granting any unnecessary adjournment to either of the parties except only on reasonable ground.

Accordingly, the revisional application being C.O. 89 of 2020 is disposed of.

There shall be no order as to costs.

Parties are to act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this Court. Urgent Photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be given to the parties, upon compliance of all formalities.
