ANJARIA and HON'BLE MR JUSTICE M.I.ARUN ORAL JUDGMENT (PER: HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE MR. JUSTICE N. V. ANJARIA) Not only that the order brought under the contempt jurisdiction invoking the provisions of Contempt of Courts Act, 1971, is admittedly an interim order, it was stated in course of the hearing of the present petition by learned advocate Mr. B.B. Patil for respondent No.1 that the final order is also passed in the proceedings on 10.01.2025. 2. It goes without saying that the rights and obligations of the parties shall be governed by the final order which is passed. In any view, the interim orders not to be amenable to the contempt jurisdiction for it did not determine any rights of the parties. - 4 - NC: 2025:KHC:5346-DB CCC No. 1193 of 2024 3. Learned advocate for the complainant could not dispute the position that the final order is passed. 4. No case is made out to invoke the contempt jurisdiction. 5. The petition is accordingly dismissed. Sd/- (N. V. ANJARIA) CHIEF JUSTICE Sd/- (M.I.ARUN) JUDGE PGG List No.: 1 Sl No.: 2
