Bombay High Court

THE EXECUTIVE ENGINEER, IRRIGATION PROJECT OSMANABADversusSUDHAKAR MURLIDAR PAWAR AND ORS

Disposal: Admitted/Allowed/Granted/Rule Absolute
Bench: SHAILESH P BRAHME

Holding

The earlier ad‑interim relief stands confirmed and the civil application for stay is disposed of.

Summary

The Executive Engineer of the Osmanabad Irrigation Project filed a civil application for a stay against Sudhakar Murlidar Pawar and others. The matter came before the Bombay High Court, Aurangabad Bench, on a first appeal. The Attorney General for the State waived service of notice on the respondents and the court ordered the record and proceedings to be called from the lower court. Since the amount in dispute had already been deposited pursuant to an earlier order, the court held that the ad‑interim relief previously granted should continue. Consequently, the civil application for stay was disposed of, confirming the earlier interim relief.

Issues considered

The appropriateness of confirming the earlier ad‑interim stay relief in the light of the amount already deposited.
