P13 & P14 orders which are orders issued by the Additional Tahsildar under the Kerala Land Conservancy Act and Rules. I am not inclined to entertain this writ petition, since the petitioner has an effective alternate remedy by way of appeal as provided under the Act itself. Therefore without prejudice to the right of the petitioner to challenge the orders in appeal, this writ petition is dismissed. However in order to enable the petitioner to move the appellate authority, I direct that further proceedings pursuant to Exts.P13 & P14 shall be kept in abeyance for a period of one month. S.
