A division bench of Justices MS Sonak and Kamal Khata pronounced the order today in petitions filed by Jiv Maitri Trust and Anoop Rajan Pal seeking urgent stay on the BMC circular.
The parties had sought the interim stay on a precipe (written request for urgent hearing) without any formal application.
The bench did not deem this an appropriate way to seek relief.
“We are not sure if this is an appropriate course to seek an interim relief. Even the precipe is bereft of any interim relief sought and simply seeks circulation of matter for urgent hearing. Oral application for interim relief cannot be entertained,” the bench said.
