Holding
The writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the Civil Judge to decide the original suit expeditiously, without granting unnecessary adjournments.
Summary
The petitioner, Chandrika Yadav, filed a writ petition under Article 227 seeking a direction to the Civil Judge of Avar Khnad Havali, Azamgarh, to decide her original suit (No.1272 of 2020) against Sushila Yadav within a fixed time. The petition sought an expeditious disposal of the pending suit. The Court observed that keeping the writ petition pending served no useful purpose while the original suit remained unresolved. Consequently, the Court disposed of the writ petition and issued a directive to the lower court to decide the suit promptly, without unnecessary adjournments, subject to any legal impediment. The order effectively closes the writ petition while ensuring the original suit proceeds expeditiously.
