THIS WRIT PETITION IS LISTED FOR PRELIMINARY HEARING IN ‘B’ GROUP, THIS DAY, AN ORDER IS MADE AS UNDER: ORAL ORDER Sri.Girish A.Yadawad., counsel for the petitioners, Sri.A.P.Murari., counsel for respondent Nos.3(A to E), 4 and 6 to 14(A) and Sri.N.P.Vivekmehta., counsel for respondent No.38 have appeared in person. 2. The captioned Writ Petition is filed seeking following reliefs: - 13 - NC: 2025:KHC-D:6807 WP No. 100485 of 2024 a) Issue a Writ of Certiorari and quash the order dated:05.12.2023 vide Annexure-H in taking the cross examination of DW.6 to 9 as nil from the side of defendants No.34 to 44. b) Issue a Writ of Certiorari and quash the order dated:10.01.2024 on I.A.No.87 filed under order 18 Rule 17 R/w section 151 of CPC in O.S.No.14/2010 on the file of court of Principal Senior Civil Judge and CJM Haveri, vide Annexure-L and thereby allow I.A.No.87. 3. The short facts are these: It is not in dispute that two suits were filed seeking the relief of partition and separate possession in O.S.No.14/2010 and O.S.No.79/2011. Both the suits were heard together. The Trial Court passed the order that cross examination of Dws.6 to 9 as Nil. Hence, an application was filed to cross examine DWs.6 to 9. The Trial Court rejected the said application. Under these circumstances the petitioners are before this Court. 4. Counsel for the respective parties urged several contentions. Heard the arguments and perused the Writ papers with care. - 14 - NC: 2025:KHC-D:6807 WP No. 100485 of 2024 5. It is pivotal to note that on 05.12.2023, the Trial Court passed the order that cross examination of DWs.6 to 9 is taken as Nil. Hence, an application was filed to recall the order and to cross examine DWs.6 to 9. The Trial Court rejected the application stating that there was a direction by the High Court for speedy disposal of the matter. This is untenable. Assuming that there was a direction by the High Court, the Trial Court must consider the application in accordance with the law and pass orders. Moreover, no prejudice would be caused if DWs.6 to 9 are cross examined. The Trail Court failed to have regard to the relevant considerations and disregarded relevant matters. The orders passed by the Trial Court are liable to be quashed. The application in I.A.No.87 is allowed. The petitioners are permitted to cross examination DWs.6 to 9 and they must complete the cross examination on or before 30.06.2025. The parties to the lis must co-operate with the Trial Court. 6. The Writ of Certiorari is ordered. The order dated:05.12.2023 passed by the Prl. Senior Civil Judge and CJM Haveri vide Annexure-H and the order dated:10.01.2024 passed by the Court of Principal Senior Civil Judge and CJM - 15 - NC: 2025:KHC-D:6807 WP No. 100485 of 2024 Haveri, on I.A.No.87 in O.S.No.14/2010 vide Annexure-L are quashed. 7. Resultantly, the Writ Petition is allowed. Because of the disposal of the Writ Petition, all pending interlocutory applications, if any are disposed of, and the interim order if any, granted by this Court stands discharged.
