Authority: High Court of Bombay at Goa
Order Date: 27 October 2026
Case Overview
- Petitioners: M.L.S Marketing Pvt. Ltd. and two others; Respondents: State of Goa, the Chief Secretary and four others.
- The petition sought relief concerning Form I and Form XIV, specifically the entry of Custodian of Enemy Property in the Occupant's column.
- On 16 July 2026, a memorandum issued by the Deputy Collector (Revenue), North Goa, stated that updated Form I and Form XIV had been issued, deleting the Custodian of Enemy Property entry from the Occupant's column.
- The court observed that the issuance of the updated forms addressed the grievance raised in the writ petition.
Final Outcome
- The court held that, in view of the memorandum dated 16 July 2026, the relief sought in the petition no longer survives; consequently, the petition is disposed.
- The court further noted that, since directions have now been issued to correct Form I and Form XIV, there is no purpose in proceeding with the related contempt petition, and it will not be taken up.
