THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 12/11/2010,THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: rs ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ------------------------- W.P (C) No.34241 of 2010 -------------------------- Dated this the 12th November, 2010 J U D G M E N T Petitioner challenges Ext.P6, a stop memo issued by the Revenue Divisional Officer as early as on 21.6.2007. Though the challenge against Ext.P6 is highly belated, the fact remains that Ext.P6 is only a stop memo and therefore the Revenue Divisional Officer should continue further action in the matter and conclude the proceedings with notice to the petitioner and giving him an opportunity to produce the material to proof his contention that the land is not covered by the provisions of the Kerala Land Unititlisation. According to the petitioner, such further proceedings have not been completed so far. In that view of the matter, I dispose of this writ petition directing that the RDO shall conclude the proceedings pursuant to Ext.P6 with notice to the petitioner, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this W.P (C) No.34241 of 2010 2 judgment, provided such proceedings are remaining incomplete, as contended by the petitioner.
