TO JUDGE tss M.N.KRISHNAN, J ===================== W.P.(C) No.14509 OF 2007 ===================== Dated this the 9th day of August 2007 JUDGMENT This writ petition is filed for a direction to the District Court, Kasargod to dispose of Exts.P9 and P10 within a time frame and in the meanwhile to permit the office bearers of the Kasargod District Cricket Association to continue in office till the disposal of Ext.P9. 2. When the matter came up for admission, this court granted the interim relief as prayed for, for a period of one month and had been extending the same till this date. It took time to complete service of notice. I am informed that all the parties have entered appearance. The appeal is pending consideration before the District Court, Kasargod. Any consideration of an interim application will take so much time as if it is for the consideration of the appeal and therefore in the interest of all the parties it is only desirable that the appeal be disposed of at the earliest, but there must be some arrangement till the disposal of the appeal. I feel that the interim order granted by this court which has been governing the issue till this date, will continue till the disposal of the appeal. The District Court, WP(C)14509/2007 -:2:- Kasargod is directed to dispose of Ext.P9 appeal within six weeks from today and I fix the outer limit of 2 months, if there is any service that remains to be done in the case. One of the parties can take a copy of this judgment and furnish it before the District Court, Kasargod for necessary compliance. Writ petition is disposed of as above. M.N.KRISHNAN, JUDGE Cdp/-
