GOVINDAN THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 11/12/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: K. M. JOSEPH, J. -------------------------------------- W.P.C. NO. 34903 OF 2008 E -------------------------------------- Dated this the 11th December, 2008 JUDGMENT Petitioners seek a direction to consider Ext.P4 representation. Ext.P7 is challenged. A further direction is sought to dispose of the Revision Petitions. I heard the learned counsel for petitioners and the learned Government Pleader. 2. As far as the direction to dispose of Ext.P4 representation is concerned, learned Government Pleader on instructions submits that all the documents have been produced before the Chief Judicial Magistrate's Court, Thiruvananthapuram. I record this submission. As far as the second prayer is concerned, it is a challenge to Ext.P7. Ext.P7 is an order of penalty passed pursuant to the appellate order. If the petitioners are aggrieved by the same, they have an appellate remedy and I relegate the petitioners to pursue the appellate remedy. 3. The further contention is that the petitioners have WPC.34903/08 E 2 preferred Appeals which are produced as Exts.P8 to P14 and they may be directed to be disposed of. Learned counsel contends that in respect of two years, the Appeals were disposed of remitting the matter back. It is open to the petitioners to move for early hearing of the Appeals. If the petitioners file petitions in the said regard, the Appellate Authority will consider the same in accordance with law, at the earliest. The Writ Petition is disposed of as above. Sd/= K. M.
