Summary

The petitioners filed a writ petition in the High Court of Bombay seeking relief against the respondents. During the proceedings, the petitioners, through their counsel Mr. Clive D’souza, applied for leave to withdraw the petition. The sole issue before the court was whether the petitioners could be permitted to withdraw the writ petition. The court exercised its inherent jurisdiction to allow withdrawal, noting that no prejudice would be caused to the respondents and that the petitioners were free to discontinue the suit. Consequently, the court granted leave to withdraw and ordered the petition to be disposed of as withdrawn.
