Dear Experts,
In a matter of Child custody case (challenge of Interim order of Family court), pleading is already over in High Court of Gujarat and matter is reserved for order 6 months back. Now Judge is not passing any order, then what can be done ?
We had already approached court master and he is saying that Court is aware of your matter. We are afraid of that filing an application before Chief Justice (for rehearing in case needed) may adversely affect our Judgemet.
Pls advise.

Nothing can be done in the given facts. You may maximum move to Chief Justice of High Court and apprise him the situation. Even manual prayer can be made on administrative side.

What is the advise of the lawyer engaged/ paid by you, who is well aware about facts/ circumstances of the case ? Proceed accordingly.
You may apply to the Court for early hearing of the case.

Dear Experts,
I submitted Civil Application to take the matter on Board. But that is also not being entertained and not taken on board. Local Lawyers say nothing can be done but to wait and watch.
Please guide me in following matters :
1) Can there be any writ petition in Supreme Court to direct them to pass order ?
2) If so, under which writ petition / under which article ?
3) Whom to make party in writ petition ?

It is advised to wait instead of moving to Supreme Court for the direction to the High Court to pronounce its reserved verdict. Sooner or later, the order is going to be announced whereas Supreme Court process may take more time and energy.
