Heard learned Senior counsel for the petitioner, learned Senior counsel for respondent No.1 and learned counsel for respondent No.2 and perused the material on record. 3. Though, several contentions have been urged by both sides in support of their respective claims, it is a matter of record and an undisputed fact that pursuant to an order dated 17.03.2026 passed by this Court in the earlier round of litigation in WP.No.8758/2026, the First Appellate Court is hearing the aforesaid appeal in MA.No.63/2025 and has been directed to dispose of the said appeal on merits on or before 17.06.2026 and the appeal is posted before the First Appellate Court on 05.06.2026. - 4 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:24712 WP No. 15026 of 2026 4. The aforesaid order passed by this Court in W.P.No.8758/2026 reads as under: “This writ petition is filed by the plaintiff under Articles 226 & 227 of the Constitution of India, seeking the following reliefs: “Direct the learned Principal District & Sessions Judge, Mysuru to expeditiously hear and dispose off M.A.No.63/2025 pending on its file, within a specified time frame as this Hon’ble Court may deem fit and proper, in accordance with law, without granting unnecessary adjournments to the parties and protect the statutory rights of the petitioner.” 2. The petitioner/plaintiff filed a suit in O.S. No.392/2025 for specific performance. Along with the plaint, the plaintiff filed an application under Order XXXIX Rules 1 and 2 r/w. Sections 94(e) and 151 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The same came to be dismissed by order dated 05.08.2025. Being aggrieved by the same, the petitioner/plaintiff filed a miscellaneous appeal before the III Additional District and Sessions Judge, Mysuru, in M.A. No. 63/2025. Since the appeal has not been disposed of, the petitioner is before this Court. 3. With regard to the maintainability of the appeal, both the counsel appearing for the parties submit that the Registry of the High Court has clarified the position by issuing a circular. Therefore, the appeal filed before the District Court is maintainable. 4. In view of the above, the following order is passed: (i) The writ petition stands disposed of. (ii) The III Additional District and Sessions Judge, Mysuru, is directed to dispose of M.A.No. 63/2025, in accordance with law, as - 5 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:24712 WP No. 15026 of 2026 expeditiously as possible, and in any event not later than three months from the date of receipt of a certified copy of this order. (iii) It is made clear that if the parties file any application for interim relief during the pendency of the appeal, the appellate court shall consider the same in accordance with law. (iv) All contentions of the parties are kept open.” 5. In pursuance of the liberty granted in favour of the petitioner in the aforesaid order, the petitioner filed the instant application for temporary injunction in MA.No.63/2025 which was dismissed by the First Appellate Court resulting in the present petition being preferred by the petitioner/plaintiff. 6. Learned Senior counsel for respondent No.1 and learned counsel for respondent No.2 jointly submits that without prejudice to their rights and contentions, since the appeal in MA.No.63/2025 is posted on 05.06.2026 and directed to be disposed of on or before 17.06.2026, the respondents/defendants have no intention of further alienating the suit schedule property till disposal of the appeal in MA.No.63/2025 pending before the First Appellate Court. - 6 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:24712 WP No. 15026 of 2026 7. The submission made on behalf of the defendants is placed on record and consequently, nothing further survives in the present petition except directing the First Appellate Court to dispose of MA.No.63/2025 on or before 17.06.2026 without seeking extension under any circumstances whatsoever and by leaving/keeping open all rival contentions to be considered by the First Appellate Court. It is further made clear that the First Appellate Court shall dispose of the appeal in MA.No.63/2025 without being influenced by the observations made in the impugned order or the present order and also the submissions made on behalf of the respondents that they have no intention of further alienating the suit schedule property till the disposal of the appeal. 8. Subject to the aforesaid directions and leaving open all contentions to be decided by the First Appellate Court, writ petition stands disposed of.
