Suffice it to note that the petitioner herein filed a suit against the defendants in O.S.No.530/2020 on the file of I Addl. Civil Judge, Bengaluru Rural District, Bengaluru and vide order dated 01.02.2021 defendants were temporarily restrained by an order of injunction. The contention and the grievance of the petitioner is that respondents 2 and 3 made attempts to settle the civil dispute between her and the defendants in the police station. Hence, she has sought direction directing respondent No.1 to take action against respondents 2 and 3. Admittedly, the petitioner has taken the shelter under the Court of law before the Civil Court and is agitating her civil rights. Hence, the reliefs sought against the police authorities in respect of a Civil dispute cannot be considered in the writ jurisdiction. The Writ Petition is devoid of merits and is liable to be rejected. 5. Resultantly, the Writ Petition is rejected. Sd/- (JYOTI MULIMANI) JUDGE TKN List No.: 3 Sl No.: 48
