The claim is of the year 2002. The matter is pending for long. The short prayer of the writ petitioner, when the matter came up for consideration is that, a direction may be given to the first respondent, with whom the dispute is pending arbitration, to be disposed of at the earliest, so that he would get the amount due from the third respondent. 2. Considering the facts that are placed before me, I direct the first respondent to hear the writ petitioner and dispose of the dispute that had been raised before him, at the earliest and, in any case, within three months from the date of production of a copy of this judgment. This writ petition is closed as above. (J.M.JAMES) Judge ms
