JUSTICE SURYA KANT Present : Mr. Vikram Singh, Advocate, for the petitioner. SURYA KANT, J.

There appears to be some dispute between the petitioner and respondents regarding release of a sum of Rs. 22,003/- and interest on the delayed payments to the petitioner. The petitioner is reported to have served the respondents with a legal notice dated September 30, 2008, but no action has been taken pursuant thereto. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner and without expressing any views on the merits of the petitioner's claim, I deem it appropriate to dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the respondents to take cognizance of the claim raised by the petitioner in legal notice dated September 30, 2008 C.W.P NO. 1809 OF 2009 -2- and dispose of the same by passing an appropriate order within a period of four months from the date of receipt of certified copy of this order.
