GAUHATI HIGH COURT
Sanjay Kumar Medhi, J
Mc Leod Russel India Ltd – Appellant
Versus
Aditya Saikia – Respondent
I.A.(Civil)/1131/2026 In WP(C)/1666/2018
For the Appellants/Petitioners: P Das, N Upadhyay
For the Respondents: S P Roy, GA, Assam
When multiple interlocutory applications affecting the array of parties in a pending suit are filed, judicial propriety requires that they be listed and heard together to ensure a consolidated resolution of the party structure before the court.
Headnote:(A) Civil Procedure - Interlocutory Application - Amendment of parties - The applicant seeks to strike out their name from the array of parties in the main writ petition. The court notes the presence of a pending, unlisted application for impleadment of parties filed by the writ petitioners. The matter is deferred to ensure all related applications are heard together. (Paras 1, 2, 4)
Facts of the case:
The petitioner moved an application to have their name removed from the list of respondents in a pending writ petition. Concurrently, the counsel for the writ petitioners informed the court that a separate interlocutory application seeking the impleadment of parties has been filed, though it has not yet been listed for hearing.
Findings of Court:
The court instructed the office to verify the status of the related impleadment application and directed that both the application for striking out the party's name and the application for impleadment be listed together after one week.
Issues: The main issue is the procedural management of conflicting interlocutory applications regarding the constitution of the parties in the main litigation.
Ratio Decidendi: In the interest of judicial economy and comprehensive adjudication, interlocutory applications that affect the array of parties in a pending matter should be heard adjunctly to avoid piece-meal consideration of party status.
Result: Matter adjourned to be listed after a week for coordination of pending interlocutory applications.
