SREELATHA THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 07/04/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC,J. --------------------- W.P.(C).No.10250 OF 2009 ------------------------ Dated this the 7th day of April, 2009. JUDGMENT Petitioner is a Co-operative Society. A property having an extent of 80 cents situated in Sy. No.4271/1 of Velurkara Village was mortgaged to the Bank. When default was committed proceedings were initiated. Ultimately, the property was brought for sale and the Bank itself purchased it. Sale certificate was registered in its favour and thereafter the Bank made an application under the Transfer of Registry Rules to the 2nd respondent for effecting mutation. Orders were not passed for the reason, that there is an order of attachment over the property. 2. In my view, as is evident from the Transfer of Registry Rules, mutation is only for fiscal purposes and it does not affect the claim of anybody else. Therefore any attachment order cannot stand in the way of the 2nd WP(c).No.10250/09 /2/ respondent passing orders on the application made by the petitioner. Therefore, it is directed that 2nd respondent shall pass orders on the request made by the petitioner as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within 8 weeks from the date of production of a copy of the judgment Writ Petition is disposed of as above.
