Bombay High Court

SANDEEP TODIversusNEHA SITARAM AGARWAL AND ANR

Decided
Disposal
Disposed Off

Holding

The petitions are deemed infructuous and are disposed of because the Apex Court has already disposed of the matters.

Summary

The High Court of Bombay heard multiple writ and contempt petitions filed by Vaishali Anil Tikam and others against Mrs. Neha Sitaram Agarwal and related respondents. The learned counsel for the respondent-wife submitted that the petitions had become infructuous because the Apex Court had already disposed of the matters. The court considered this submission and examined whether any further relief could be granted. Finding that the higher court's disposal rendered the petitions moot, the bench held that there was no cause for further adjudication. Consequently, the court ordered the petitions to be disposed of as infructuous.
