P. C:- This Interim Application has been filed by Defendant Nos.1, 3 and 4, seeking following reliefs:- S.R.JOSHI

41-ia-3179-2025.doc "a. That this Hon'ble Court be pleased to permit the Applicants/Defendant Nos. 1, 3 and 4 to withdraw the common Written Statement dated 24th January, 2011 filed on their behalf with liberty to file fresh Written Statement;

b. In alternate to prayer (a) this Hon'ble Court be pleased to permit the Applicants/Defendant Nos. 1, 3 and 4 to file Additional Written Statement;

c. Cost of the Interim Application may be granted. d. That such further and other reliefs as this Hon'ble Court may deem fit and proper in the nature and circumstances of the case. It is the case of Defendant Nos. 1, 3 and 4 that the facts stated in the Written Statement dated 24th January, 2011 are not accurate and, therefore, the present Interim Application has been filed. In my view, since the Written Statement has already been filed, there is no question of permitting the withdrawal of the same. However, Defendant Nos. 1, 3 and 4 can always be permitted to file an Additional Written Statement to explain the facts as understood by them. Accordingly, Interim Application is allowed in terms of prayer clause (b). However, there will be no order as to costs. (FIRDOSH P. POONIWALLA,J.) S.R.JOSHI
