COMMON JUDGMENT
[Judgment of the court was delivered by S.NAGAMUTHU, J.] These appeals are filed against the order of the learned Single Judge dated 02.04.2013 in A.Nos.3370-3371/2011 and O.A.No.610 and 611 of 2011(OSA Nos.174 to 177/2013) and dated 15.04.2013 in Review Application Nos.1769, 1771, 1773 and 1776 of 2013 in A.Nos.3370-3371 of 2011 and O.A Nos.610 and 611 of 2011(OSA Nos.211 to 214 of 2013).
2. When the matters are taken up for hearing, there is no representation for the appellants. The respondents 1 and 2 are ready. These appeals arise out of the Order passed under Section 9 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, seeking interim directions. Arbitration proceedings have been pending from 2011 onwards. The appellants appear to have lost interest in prosecuting these appeals, which is evident from the fact that there is no representation today.
3. Having regard to the fact that the parties can work out their remedy before the Arbitration Proceedings, we are not inclined to interfere with the interim orders. Therefore, all the appeals are dismissed.
S.NAGAMUTHU,J.
And N. AUTHINATHAN,J., sr
4. The learned counsel for the respondents 1 and 2 submitted that there is a talk going between the parties to settle the issue.
5. It is for them to settle and to report before the Arbitration Tribunal. No costs. Consequently, connected MPs are closed.
