MANIKRAO SAMPAT JADHAV AND OTHERSversusMAROTI MANDIR VAVNA THROUGH MANAGING TRUSTEE ARCHK

Disposal
DISPOSED OFF

Holding

The petition is dismissed as it has become infructuous due to the passage of time.

Summary

Manikrao Sampat Jadhav and others filed a writ petition (6 WRIT PETITION NO. 6142 OF 2021) before the Bombay High Court, Aurangabad Bench, challenging actions of Maroti Mandir Vavna through its Managing Trustee. The petition was argued by Ms. Sharaya Dhanture, holding out Mr. R. V. Gore as her senior. The Court examined the record and observed that a considerable lapse of time had occurred since the filing of the petition. It held that the delay rendered the petition infructuous, meaning it could no longer be entertained. Consequently, the Court disposed of the writ petition without granting any relief. The decision was delivered by Justice Siddheshwar S. Thombre on 17 February 2026.
