Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the suit in O.S.No.522/2009 is filed by the plaintiff in the year 2009 and the plaintiff taking advantage of the interim order is protracting the suit by filing application one after the other and without any cause, dragging the matter. Hence, the petitioner - 3 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:36218 WP No. 43825 of 2019 being aggrieved by the delay in disposal of the suit, having no other alternative, filed this writ petition seeking for a direction to the Presiding Officer to dispose of the suit as expeditiously as possible in a time bound manner. He also submits that even after filing of the writ petition, the matter was pending for service of notice on the respondents. 4. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner, while considering matters of these kind, no notice is required to be ordered to the respondents and no prejudice will be caused to the respondents in giving direction for speedy disposal of the suits which are pending since for a long period without ordering notice to the respondents. 5. In the present, the suit is pending since from the year 2009. Hence, this Court is inclined to direct the Presiding Officer to dispose of the pending suit as expeditiously as possible in a time bound manner. 6. In view of the above observation, the following order is passed: - 4 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:36218 WP No. 43825 of 2019 (i) The writ petition stands disposed of.
