allegedly executed by defendant No.1 in favour of defendant No.2, as well as the sale deed dated 27.02.2025 allegedly executed by defendant No.1 in favour of defendant No.2. She also sought declaration with respect to the sale deed dated 18.07.2016 allegedly executed by defendant No.1 in favour of defendant No.3 and further challenged the sale deed dated 08.02.2021 allegedly executed by defendant No.3 in favour of defendant No.4. In addition, the petitioner sought a decree for permanent injunction restraining the defendants from further alienating, selling, mortgaging, or creating any third-party rights over the suit property. Notice of the said suit was issued to the respondents, who appeared through their counsel.

¶21

Learned counsel for the petitioner contends that only respondents No.2 to 4 have filed their written statements, whereas respondent No.1 has not filed the written statement till date. It is further contended that the petitioner had moved an application under Section 151 CPC for preponement/early hearing of the matter with a view to secure adjudication of the stay application. However, the learned trial Court, without adverting to the merits of the case, dismissed the said application under Section 151 CPC. It is further submitted that a direction be issued to the learned Civil Judge (Junior Division), Safidon, to decide the stay application filed under Order 39 Rules 1 and 2 read with Section 151 CPC, upon filing of the written statement by respondent No.1.

¶22

Considering the limited nature of relief sought, issuance of notice to the respondents is dispensed with, as the same would only result in further delay in the proceedings.
