NAIK, ADV., FOR R1 TO R3 SRI. PAWAN KUMAR, ADV., FOR SRI. H. DEVENDRAPPA, ADV., FOR R4 AND R5) THIS W.P. IS FILED UNDER ARTICLE 227 OF THE CONSTITUTION OF INDIA, PRAYING TO ISSUE WRIT OF CERTIORARI QUASHING THE ORDER DATED 30/09/2024 AT ANNEXURE-Q IN O.S.NO.6914/2024 PASSED BY THE LEARNED HON'BLE XX ADDL. CITY CIVIL AND SESSIONS JUDGE (CCH- 32) BENGALURU ON I.A.NO.4 UNDER ORDER 39 RULE 1 & 2 R/W SECTION 151 OF CPC & ETC. THIS PETITION, COMING ON FOR ORDERS, THIS DAY, ORDER WAS MADE THEREIN AS UNDER: CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE VIJAYKUMAR A. PATIL - 5 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:48272 W.P. No.28933/2024 ORAL ORDER This petition is filed seeking for the following reliefs: "a) Issue writ of certiorari quashing the order dated 30.09.2024 at Annexure-Q in O.S.No.6914/2024 passed by the learned Hon'ble XX Addl. City Civil & Sessions Judge (CCH-32) Bengaluru on I.A.No.4 under Order 39 Rule 1 & 2 r/w section 151 of CPC. b) Grant permanent Injunction restraining the Respondents No.1 to 3, their henchmen, agents, representatives, servants, supporters or anybody acting on their behalf from continuing the construction of unauthorized or alienating illegal "PENT HOUSE" on the terrace floor of the schedule property till disposal of suit." 2. Smt.H.R.Anitha, learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have filed a suit for permanent injunction restraining the defendant Nos.1 to 3 from continuing the construction of unauthorised illegal pent house in the premises. In the said suit, the petitioners have filed an application seeking temporary injunction. The Trial Court, without understanding the urgency issued emergent notice on the application which - 6 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:48272 W.P. No.28933/2024 compelled the petitioners to file this writ petition. It is submitted that sufficient material was placed before the Trial Court to indicate that the construction carried out by the defendants was illegal and contrary to the plan. The said aspect was not appreciated by the Trial Court. Hence, she seeks to allow the petition. 3. Per contra, Sri.Kashyap N.Naik, learned counsel for the respondent Nos.1 to 3 submits that the writ petition is liable to be rejected as a pre-mature one. The Trial Court has issued emergent notice and now the defendants have entered appearance. The Trial Court can be directed to consider the pending application on its merits after hearing both the parties. Hence, he seeks to pass appropriate orders. 4. I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioners, learned counsel for the respondent Nos.1 to 3 and perused the material available on record. I have - 7 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:48272 W.P. No.28933/2024 given my anxious consideration to the arguments advanced on both the sides. 5. The petitioners filed a suit for the relief of permanent injunction against the defendant Nos.1 to 3 seeking a restrainment order against them on the ground that they are putting unauthorised construction as a pent house in the premises. It is the contention that the said construction is in contrary to the sanctioned plan. The Trial Court has not disposed the application filed by the petitioner under Order XXXIX Rule 1 and 2 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, but has issued emergent notice on the said application. It is to be noticed that this Court, vide order dated 28.10.2024 has considered the urgency and granted interim protection. In my considered view, if the interim order granted by this Court is continued till the disposal of the application filed by the petitioner, ends of justice would be met. Hence, I proceed to pass the following: - 8 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:48272 W.P. No.28933/2024 ORDER (1) The writ petition is allowed. (2) The order dated 28.10.2024 passed by this Court is continued till the disposal of I.A.No.4 filed by the petitioner before the Trial Court. The interim order granted by this Court which is continued till the consideration of the application filed by the petitioner shall not be construed as a recording of finding on merits of the case. (3) The Trial Court shall consider the case on its merits independently without being influenced by any observations made by this Court in the aforesaid order. Consequently, the pending interlocutory application stands disposed of. No order as to costs. Sd/- (VIJAYKUMAR A. PATIL) JUDGE RV List No.: 1 Sl No.: 9
