M/S.GOAN REAL ESTATES & CONSTR.LTD. vs PEOPLE'S MOVEMENT FOR CIVIC ACTION

The Supreme Court clarified its earlier order dated August 28, 2008, in Civil Appeal No. 5282 of 2008, which mistakenly stated it was directed against a status quo order from the High Court. The Court confirmed that the appeal was actually against an amendment allowing the writ petitioners to challenge a prior order from the National Coastal Zone Management Authority. The Court partly allowed the application for clarification but denied the request to declare two related petitions as infructuous, emphasizing the need for the High Court to decide the pending writ petition expeditiously.
