SENIOR CIVIL JUDGE, RANEBENNUR TO PASS ORDER ON THE I.A.NO.9 FILED BY THE PETITIONER IN F.D.P.NO.18/2016 MARKED AT ANNEXURE-F, AND ETC.,. THIS PETITION COMING ON FOR PRELIMINARY HEARING, THIS DAY, THE COURT MADE THE FOLLOWING: ORAL ORDER (PER: THE HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SURAJ GOVINDARAJ) 1. Notice to the respondent is dispensed with in view of the memo filed by the petitioner. 2. The petitioner is before this Court seeking for the following relief: “WHEREFORE, it is humbly prayed before this Hon’ble Court to issue a writ in the nature of mandamus to the court of Prl. Senior Civil Judge, - 10 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC-D:12689 WP No. 106955 of 2025 Ranebennur to pass order on the I.A.No.9 filed by the petitioner in F.D.P.No.18/2016 marked at Annexure-F, and grant any other relief as deemed fit in the interest of justice.” 3. The only grievance of the petitioner is that, I.A.No.9 filed by the petitioner in FDP No.18/2016 for modification of share is still pending consideration, however, the FDP Court has issued a Commissioner Warrant. It is but required for the FDP Court to pass necessary orders on I.A.No.9 before issuance of the Commissioner Warrant. The said application being pending from 20.01.2021, directing the FDP Court to dispose of I.A.No.9 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate before acceptance of the Commissioner's report if not already accepted, the petition stands disposed of.
