Rabin Bhattacharyya, J.1. This appeal is directed against an order passed by the learned trial Judge on 24.2.97 in connection with the Civil Order No. 6573(W) of 1991.2. The case reveals a wrangle between the two neighbours over the construction of the premises by the Respondent No. 1 to the adjoining East of the writ petitioner's building in patent violation of the Bengal Municipal Act. It was a cry in despair by the writ petitioner when she vindicated her grievance before the municipal authority about the wanton act of her neighbour. In course of hearing before the learned trial Judge, a special officer was deputed to ascertain about the extent of violation of the impugned construction. The special officer in his turn submitted a report in course of hearing.

ORDER1. The appeal is treated as on today's list. There will be an order in terms of prayer (a).2. This is an appeal directed against an order of the learned single Judge of the writ court passed upon a writ application, preferred by the present appellants. The order is dated 29th November, 1996 and by the said order the learned single Judge disposed of the writ application by granting opportunity to the parties to mention before the appropriate court for expeditious disposal of an alleged execution case or for sale of the property, as proposed by the company, for the purpose of liquidating the dues of the Bank under the decree.3. The admitted position is that there was a consent decree, passed in a suit, instituted by Mr. Jayanta Banerjee's client, the Bank, against Mr. P.C. Sen's clients and in that consent decree, a Receiver was appointed for certain purposes but such consent decree, admittedly, had not been put into execution and as such there was no existence of any execution case...

1. We have heard an appeal from an ad-interim order passed by an Hon'ble Single Judge on the 24th of June 1997 as modified by His Lordship's order dated 30th June 1997.2. The appeal has been heard out on the most expeditious basis because by those two orders His Lordship directed to the effect that the two appellants should not leave Calcutta unless security to the extent of Rs. 50 lakh is furnished in the case of such of those two persons.3.
