THIS CONTEMPT OF COURT CASE (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 06/08/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: P.N. RAVINDRAN, J. = = = = = = = = = = = COC NO. 923 OF 2010 = = = = = = = = = = = = DATED THIS, THE 6TH DAY OF AUGUST, 2010. J U D G M E N T By Annexure A1 judgment delivered on 27.102009 in W.P.(C) 30158/2009, this Court directed the Revenue Divisional Officer, Adoor, to pass orders on the appeal filed by the petitioner and her husband, after affording them an opportunity of being heard, within three months from the date on which they produce a copy of the judgment. This Court also directed that till orders are passed on the appeal, the order passed by the Tahsildar, Kozhencherry under the Kerala Land Conservancy Act, 1957 and the rules framed thereunder shall stand stayed. This contempt case is filed alleging that immediately after Annexure A3 order was passed dismissing the appeal, the petitioners in the writ petition were evicted in violation of the order of stay passed by this Court. Annexure A5 mahazar prepared by the revenue officials on 21.4.2010 while evicting the petitioner discloses that the appeal filed by her was rejected by the Revenue Divisional Officer on 24.3.2010. If that be so, the order of stay passed by this Court in Annexure A1 judgment will operate only for a further period of two weeks from 24.3.2010. The petitioner was evicted on 21.4.2010, long after the said period of two COC 923/2010 2 weeks expired. In such circumstances, it cannot be said that the respondents have acted in violation of the order of this Court when they evicted the petitioner. I therefore, find no grounds to entertain this contempt case. It is accordingly dismissed. P.N. RAVINDRAN, (JUDGE) knc/-
