DEEPA - GOVERNMENT PLEDER THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 16/03/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S. SIRI JAGAN, J. ------------------------------------ W.P.(C)No.6252 OF 2009 ---------------------------------------- Dated this the 16th day of March, 2009 JUDGMENT The petitioner is aggrieved by the delay in disposal of L.A.R.No.10/2006 pending before the III Additional Sub Court, Ernakulam. The petitioner's contention is that the matter was not disposed of on account of a stay order passed by this Court in some other cases. According to the petitioner, that stay was vacated as per Ext.P1 judgment and in spite of the same, on the ground of pendency of stay, the Sub court is not proceeding with the L.A.R. The petitioner, therefore, seeks a direction to the Sub Court to dispose of the L.A.R. expeditiously. 2. I have called for a report from the Sub Court and the learned Sub Judge has reported that now that the stay is no longer in force, the trial of L.A.R.No.10/06 can be completed and the judgment can be pronounced within one month from 11.3.2009. In the above circumstances, I dispose of this writ petition W.P.(c)No.6252/09 2 with a direction to the III Additional Sub Court, Ernakulam to dispose of L.A.R.No.10/2006 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
