On December 5, Sanjay Raut, MP and the editor of Shiv Sena mouthpiece Saamana, will be examined by the lawyers of Jaidev Thackeray.
Justice Gautam Patel, who is hearing the matter, yesterday deferred the hearing to December 5 when Raut would be examined.
On October 10, Raut had not appeared as witness before the court and the matter was deferred till yesterday to enable the court to fix a date for next hearing.
The court had also warned that if Raut remained absent at the next hearing, it might consider issuing a warrant against him.
Jaidev has challenged Bal Thackeray’s last will, made on December 13, 2011, which did not give him anything but bequeathed a substantial share of the property to Jaidev’s brother and the incumbent Sena president Uddhav
Thackeray. The HC had earlier asked the two parties to settle the dispute amicably, but they failed to reach a compromise.
