Item No. 30 24.08.2023 Court. No. 19 GB C.O. 1137 of 2023 Smt. Manasi Maity Vs.

Smt. Mahua Pradhan (Maikap) & Ors.

Mr. Manoranjan Jana ... for the Petitioner.

The petitioner is the defendant in Title Suit No.130 of 2017, which is pending before the learned Civil Judge (Junior Division), 1st Court at Contai, District - Purba Medinipur. The petitioner prays for expeditious disposal of the title suit along with the pending applications.

Considering the age of the suit, this Court is of the view that the prayer of the petitioner is reasonable. This Court has neither expressed any opinion on the merits of the suit nor on the merits of the appliactions. An order of expeditious disposal enures to the benefit of all the parties and hence this revisional application need not be served upon the opposite parties before its disposal. The prayer is innocuous.

Under such circumstances, this Court directs the learned Civil Judge (Junior Division), 1st Court at Contai, District - Purba Medinipur to dispose of the applications within a period of four months from the next date fixed, upon giving adequate opportunity to the opposite party to contest the same. The suit shall be disposed of within a year, thereafter.

The learned court below shall proceed in accordance with law and independently, without granting unnecessary adjournments to either of the parties.

Accordingly, the revisional application is disposed of. Petitioner is directed to serve a copy of the revisional application upon the opposite parties, along with a server copy of this order.

However, there will be no order as to costs.

Urgent photostat certified copy of this order, if applied for, be given to the parties on priority basis. (Shampa Sarkar, J.)
