Priyanka Shaw v. Badal Ghosh

11.03.2024 Sl. No.9(DL) srm C.O. No. 755 of 2024 Smt. Priyanka Shaw

Versus

Sri Badal Ghosh Mr. Amit Baran Dash, Ms. Ankana Sarkar ...for the Petitioner.

The petitioner is the wife, who prays for expeditious disposal of Matrimonial Suit No.3207 of 2017, which is pending before the learned Additional District Judge, 10th Court at Alipore, South 24-Parganas.

The petitioner contends that no applications are pending and the suit is at the stage of evidence.

Considering the submission, this Court is of the view that the prayer of the petitioner, for early disposal of the proceeding, is innocuous. Neither party stands to lose if a proceeding is disposed of expeditiously. In fact, such expeditious disposal shall enure to the benefit of the parties. Hence, there is no requirement for service of prior notice upon the opposite party.

Under such circumstances, the revisional application is disposed of, with a direction upon the learned court to dispose

of the suit, within a period of six months from the next date fixed, independently and strictly in accordance with law, upon allowing the parties to contest the proceeding. Unnecessary adjournments shall not be granted to any of the parties. This Court has not gone into the merits of the suit. A copy of the revisional application along with a server copy of this order be served upon the opposite party within a week.

The revisional application is, thus, disposed of. There will be, however, no order as to costs. Parties are to act on the basis of the server copy of this order.
