High Court of Judicature at Allahabad (Rohit Ranjan Agarwal, J.; Order Date 27.1.2025; Neutral Citation 2025:AHC:13627) — MATTERS UNDER ARTICLE 227 No. 921 of 2025, Daulatram & Anr. v. Smt. Jarawati & 2 Ors. The petition sought a direction to the Civil Judge (Jr. Div.), Jaunpur to decide Suit No. 287 of 2022 and a pending 6-C application within a stipulated period. Counsel did not press the limb concerning expeditious disposal of the suit, confining the petition to early decision of the 6-C application. Disposing of the writ petition at the admission stage — without calling for a counter affidavit or issuing notice to the private respondents, finding no useful purpose in keeping the matter pending — the Court directed the trial court to decide the 6-C application in accordance with law after hearing all affected parties, preferably within two months from production of a certified copy of the order, and expressly clarified that the matter had not been adjudicated on merits.
