(3.) The learned counsel for the opposite parties have raised three fold preliminary objections against maintainability of the Special Appeal. The first preliminary objection is that the writ petition was filed challenging an interim order dtd. 30/9/2024 by which the opposite parties have been granted time to file counter affidavits and the petitioner has been granted time to file a rejoinder affidavit and the operation of a ceiling / demolition order has been stayed till the next date of listing of the Writ Petition, i.e. 22/1/2025. The Writ Court has not decided any point by the order under challenge in this Appeal and the order does not fall within the category of a 'judgment'. Therefore, the Special Appeal would not lie against such an order.
