Yes, definitely, the court will disposed off your application first after given an opportunity to opposite party to file their reply and argue the matter on your application for joining the party in the case and after deciding your application for add the party the court may pass final order in the case and not before that.

Hello,

1) Your joining party will not delay the disposal of the case in its entirety as far as the final disposal of the case is concerned.

2) However this will depend on what is the interest that prompted your joining party and if the court has/will look into additional concerns raised

Hello,

1)It is but apparent that you need to be joining parties as your interests are at stake too.

2) If you are quite certain that the case is going to be finally disposed of within a month it is advisable that wait for the final disposal and appeal if necessary.

1. The HC will now hear your arguments before disposing the case.

2. In the beginning you have said that you have joined, whereas subsequently you have stated that you are yet to join.

3. If the grievance is stay alone then the earlier order by the HC can be recalled on your application, but this will have to be preceded by your impleadment as a party to the case.

1.Joining of parties as Applicants to some extent delays the final disposal of the case since the the opposite parties will respond to their such joining by filing application against such joining of parties,

2. However, if required you should joint the suit for the ends of justice.

1. You do not know what will be the outcome of the main case,

2. You should join as a party to vacate the stay order on the entire recruitment process.

Yes, depending the nature of inclusion that party also may contest the case from the beginning, hence the delay is likely to be caused.

Should we go for case as joining party or it will delay entire process of main case ? Actually Main case is about to end in month.

If you apprehend the danger of further delay, it would be better to not to initiate any such process and if you find the benefits are more by impleading parties, you may decide accordingly.
