THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA Writ Petition No. 9205 of 2007 Dated: 19.07.2007 Between: S. Somla. .... PETITIONER AND The National Insurance Company, Regional Office, Mugul’s Court, Basheer Bagh, Hyderabad, rep. by its Regional Manager (Appellate Authority) and another .....RESPONDENTS THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA Writ Petition No. 9205 of 2007 Order: The main grievance of the petitioner in this writ petition is that against the dismissal order dated 17.03.2003 passed by the 2nd respondent, he preferred an appeal on 20.08.2004 before the 1st respondent, but no orders thereon have been passed till date. Hence, he filed the present writ petition. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondents. Both the counsel agreed for disposal of the writ petition with a direction to the 1st respondent to consider and dispose of the appeal filed by the petitioner. Since the appeal filed by the petitioner is said to be pending consideration before the 1st respondent, and in view of the agreed stand taken by both the counsel, without going into the merits of the matter, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with the following directions: The 1st respondent is directed to consider and dispose of the appeal, preferred by the petitioner on 20.08.2004 against the dismissal order dated 17.03.2003 passed by the 2nd respondent, and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law, expeditiously, preferably within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. ___________________ N.V. RAMANA, J. Date: 19.07.2007 Nsr
