In Brief
In this case, the Supreme Court considered a High Court order that had vacated the stay on eviction proceedings against a commercial property occupant. Rather than upheld the order as-is or reject it entirely, the Court struck a balance. The appellant undertook to vacate the premises by 31 March 2019 while continuing to pay monthly use and occupation charges. The arrangement was conditioned on the appellant filing a formal undertaking and was made without prejudice to either party's claims regarding eventual mesne profits. The appeal was disposed of with no order on costs.
