The petition was dismissed as there was no surviving cause of action after the earlier settlement.

Summary

Giridhari Deepa Rathod filed a writ petition (924/2017) in the Bombay High Court, Aurangabad bench, challenging the respondents Mulchand Pema Rathod and others. The petitioners argued that the matter had already been resolved in an earlier case, R.C.S. No.53 of 2013, which was settled before the trial court. Both parties' counsel reiterated that the earlier case was fully settled and no issues remained. The court examined the submissions and found that there was no surviving cause of action in the present petition. Consequently, the court disposed of the writ petition for lack of any remaining claim.
