IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM PRESENT : THE HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ANTONY DOMINIC MONDAY, THE 18TH AUGUST 2008 / 27TH SRAVANA 1930 WP(C).No. 24767 of 2008(W) -------------------------- PETITIONER: ------------ I.N. PRADEEP, ETHIPARAMBIL HOUSE, P.O. KANIPPAYOOR, KUNNAMKULAM, THRISSUR. BY ADV. SRI.G.PRABHAKARAN RESPONDENTS: ------------- 1. THE REGIONAL TRANSPORT AUTHORITY, THRISSUR, REP. BY ITS SECRETARY. 2. THE SECRETARY, REGIONAL TRANSPORT AUTHORITY, THRISSUR. 3. THE DISTRICT TRANSPORT OFFICER, K.S.R.T.C, THRISSUR. 4. THE STATE TRANSPORT APPELLATE TRIBUNAL, ERNAKULAM. THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 18/08/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. -------------------------------------------------------- W.P.(C) 24767 of 2008 -------------------------------------------------------- Dated: AUGUST 18, 2008 JUDGMENT An application for a permit made by the petitioner was rejected for reasons of overlapping. An appeal was filed. That was disposed by Ext.P2 judgment dated 26.12.2007 permitting the petitioner to submit an application for a modified route excluding the objectionable sector, within one month from the date of the judgment. The modified application was received by the Tribunal on 29.1.2008 and for reasons of delay that was rejected by Ext.P4. This order was called in question before the Tribunal by filing Ext.P5 appeal and that was rejected by Ext.P6. 2. Admittedly the application for modified route was belated and the direction in Ext.P2 judgment has not been complied with. The contention of the petitioner that the date of the application was 18.1.2008 was also taken note of WP(C) 24767/08 2 by the Tribunal and, on facts, the Tribunal concluded that the application was received on 29.1.2008 only. If that be so, the finding in Ext.P6 is unassailable. Writ petition fails and is dismissed. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE mt/-
