P (C) No. 7655 of 2008 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Dated this, the 8th April, 2008. J U D G M E N T A retired employee of the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation threatened with coercive recovery proceedings by the Kerala State Housing Board for housing loan taken by the petitioner from that Board, is seeking out of turn payment of his retirement benefits to discharge the liability in this writ petition. The genuineness of the claim is not disputed by the standing counsel for the Corporation. In view of Ext. P2 notice issued by the Housing Board, I am satisfied that the petitioner has made out a case for out of turn payment of the retirement benefits to the extent covered by Ext. P2. Accordingly, I direct the 1st respondent to forward a cheque for Rs.1,26,235/- to the 3rd respondent in payment of the amounts covered by Ext. P2. This is without prejudice to the right of the 3rd respondent to claim any further amount due from the petitioner. The payment shall be made from other funds of the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation and not from the 10% collection set apart for paying amounts due to the pensioners who are waiting in the queue. The writ petition is disposed of as above. Sd/- S. Siri Jagan, Judge. Tds/ [True copy] P.S to Judge. W.P.C. No. -: 2 :-
