1.
Leave granted.
2. The appellants approached this Court, aggrieved by the order dated 13.12.2011 passed by the High Court of Judicature of Bombay at Mumbai in Appeal No. 598 of 2011, whereby the High Court granted an interim prayer in terms of Prayer (a), which reads as follows :-
"2. As the Appeal is admitted against the order by which sole caveat is removed, further proceedings for grant of probate will have to be stayed. Hence, Notice of Motion is granted in terms of prayer (a).
3. Notice of Motion stands disposed of accordingly. No costs"
3. Since the appeal has already been admitted, we are of the view that it will be in the interest of parties concerned to have the appeal disposed of at
