JYOTI SATISH KADAM AND OTHERSversusJYOTI NITIN THOSAR AND OTHERS

Disposal: DISPOSED OFF

Holding

The writ petition was held to be infructuous and therefore dismissed.

Summary

Petitioners Jyoti Satish Kadam et al. filed a writ petition challenging certain actions of respondents Jyoti Nitin Thosar et al. During the pendency of the petition, the underlying Regular Civil Suit No. 278 of 2021 was finally disposed by the 8th Joint Civil Judge, Senior Division, Ahmednagar. The respondents argued that with the disposal of the civil suit, there was nothing left for the writ petition to address. The Court agreed, holding that the writ petition had become infructuous. Consequently, the Court disposed of the writ petition as infructuous and any accompanying civil applications, if any, were also dismissed.
