    Case History
    Date: 10-05-2019
    Business: Adv.Nichani with Adv.S.T.Manek for the plaintiff present and tendered registered NM 1775/19 with affidavit in support.
    AGP Shri.Kudalkar for defendant Nos.1 to 3 present and filed reply to NM 1775/19.
    Adv.Patil for defendant no.4 present and seeks time to file reply to NM.
         Heard learned advocates for the parties on prayer made by the plaintiff for grant of ad-interim protection to the plaintiff.
    Order- Learned advocate for the plaintiff submitted that there is apprehension of removal of suit hoarding by the defendants if ad-interim protection till filing of reply by defendant no.4 is not granted in favour of the plaintiff.  She argued that suit hoarding is in existence since year 2001 and police authorities have given permission to use neon lights for the suit hoarding in year 2005 due to which, it is necessary to grant ad-interim protection.
         As against this, Learned AGP for defendant Nos.1 to 3 vehemently opposed the prayer for grant of ad-interim relief by submitting that as per the guidelines issued in year 2008, plaintiff is not entitled to use illumination for suit hoarding hence, legal notice is served on the plaintiff for removing said illumination as it is proving to be dangerous to road traffic and public at large as there are chances of happening untoward incident of accidents as the drivers of the vehicles may get disturbed due to the illumination.  He argued that the suit hoarding is at a distance of 11 mtr only from the traffic signal which is against guidelines issued in clause 16(d) of Section 328 and 329 of MMC Act as said clause prescribes that hoarding shall be at a distance of more than 25 meter from the traffic signal.
        Having gone through the record, I found that the suit hoarding is in existence since last about 19 years and permission to use neon lights for making  its use appears to have granted by the Police Authorities way back in year 2005. Even though learned AGP submitted that plaintiff is not entitled for interim protection on the basis of the permission granted by Police Authorities in year 2005 in view of the guidelines issued subsequently in year 2008, it appears to be an admitted fact that despite issuance of those guidelines in year 2008, defendants have not taken any action in respect of the suit hoarding for a period of around 11 years and impugned notice is issued to the plaintiff in year-2019. Considering those aspects of the matter, I am of the opinion that it is necessary to grant interim protection to the plaintiff till next date as defendant no.4 is not in a position today to file its reply. Prima facie case appears to be in favour of the plaintiff for issuing direction to maintain statusquo as on today till next date otherwise, the very purpose of filing this NM may get frustrated. Thus, parties to maintain status quo in respect of the suit hoarding till next date.
        By consent, matter is adjourned to 06.06.2019 for filing reply to NM by defendant no.4.
       On request of advocates for parties, authenticate copies of todays roznama be given to them.

    Heard both sides on NM No.5007/2024
    Order on Notice of Motion No.5007/2024
         By way of present notice of motion, defendant No.4/BMC seek setting aside no reply order dated 04.10.2022.
         Ld. Adv. for defendant No.4 submits that, due to transfer of the employees and due to communication gap, reply could not be filed within time. She submits that, the delay is not intentional or deliberate. Ld. Adv. submits that, the draft reply is ready, however due to inadvertence it remained to get affirmed. She submits that, today she will file draft reply and further undertake to file affirmed reply on next date.
         Ld. Adv. for plaintiff though objects the notice of motion on the ground of lack of sufficient reasons, however in-alternate submits to pass appropriate order.
         Considering the nature dispute involved in the matter, I find that, reply by BMC is necessary for just disposal of the suit. Although there is delay on the part of the BMC. I find it just and proper to condone the delay and permit BMC to file reply. Hence, the order
