THIS OP (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 14/12/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: THOMAS P. JOSEPH, J. -------------------------------------- O.P.(C) No.1146 of 2010 -------------------------------------- Dated this the 14th day of December, 2010. JUDGMENT Petitioner, aged about 80 years along with respondent Nos.11 to 19 filed O.S.No.22 of 2006 for partition of the suit property and obtained a preliminary decree. That preliminary decree is challenged by respondent Nos.1 to 10 in A.S.No.15 of 2008 in the Sub Court, Vadakara. Grievance of the petitioner is that he is aged about 80 years, some of the respondents also crossed the age of 60 years and that they would like to enjoy the fruits of the decree during their life time. Learned counsel contends that preliminary steps in A.S.No.15 of 2008 are over and that the appeal is ripe for hearing. 2. In the circumstances stated by learned counsel, learned Sub Judge is directed to dispose of A.S.No.15 of 2008 as early as possible if preliminary steps are over. Petition is disposed of as above. THOMAS P.JOSEPH, Judge. cks
