Order No.
ORDER 03.09.2026
02.
1. Recorded the submission of Mr. Satapathy, learned counsel for the petitioner.
2. Instant CRLMP is filed by the petitioner challenging the impugned order dated 22nd June, 2026 passed in connection with Criminal Misc. Case No.49 of 2026 to decide and to try MAT Case No. 27 of 2025 first and thereafter, to commence the hearing in Criminal Misc. Case No. 49 of 2026 pending in the file of learned Civil Judge (Senior Division), Sundargarh for the reasons stated.
3. Since both are independent proceedings and this Court is of the view that one cannot be stayed till the disposal of the other and therefore, such a direction cannot be issued. But considering the submission of Mr. Satapathy, learned counsel for analogous hearing of both the cases by one Court, liberty is
granted to the petitioners to approach the learned District Judge, Sundargarh with an application for such an order and upon receiving the same, it shall be entertained and disposed of at the earliest and accordingly, it is ordered.
4. Consequently, the CRLMP stands disposed of.
5. Issue urgent copy of this order as per rules.
(R.K. Pattanaik) Judge Kabita
