PLEADER SMT.ANU SIVARAMAN THIS CONTEMPT OF COURT CASE (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 29/07/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: tss P.N.RAVINDRAN, J. ----------------------------- Cont. Case (C) No.895 of 2009-S ------------------------------ Dated this the 29th day of July, 2009. J U D G M E N T Heard Sri.S.Mohandas, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and Smt.Anu Sivaraman, the learned Senior Government Pleader appearing for the respondents. On going through the Contempt of Court Case, the essential grievance of the petitioner is that though Annexure AIII and AIV orders have been issued pursuant to Anneuxure A1 order passed by this Court in W.P(C) No.11226 of 2008, the monetary benefits have been disbursed only to some among the petitioners and thereby the respondents have committed contempt of this Court. In my opinion, Annexure AI interim order did not direct payment of monetary benefits within any time limit. Therefore if the petitioners aggrieved by non implementation of Annexure AIII and AIV orders regarding payment of arrears of salary and allowances to some among them, they should file an application seeking appropriate reliefs instead of invoking this Court's jurisdiction under the Contempt of Court Act. Without prejudice to right of the petitioners to move this Court as aforesaid, the Contempt of Court case is dismissed. Sd/- ab P.N.RAVINDRAN, JUDGE
