BY GOVERNMENT PLEADER SRI I.V.PRAMOD THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 02/01/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ------------------------------------ W.P.(C) 230 of 2008 ------------------------------------- Dated: January 2, 2008 JUDGMENT Exts.P6 and P10 were challenged before this court in W.P.(C) No.30672/2007. That writ petition was disposed of by Ext.P11 judgment directing that Exts.P6 and P10 be treated as notices and final orders be passed considering the objections of the petitioners. It is stated that in pursuance to the said judgment, the matter was considered and by Ext.P13, Exts.P6 and P10 were upheld. Aggrieved by Ext.P13, the petitioners have filed an appeal under clause 16(b) of the Kerala Land Conservancy Act. The said appeal is pending consideration of the 4th respondent. In the meanwhile this writ petition has been filed by the petitioner that there is likelihood of Exts.P6 and P10 being implemented. 2. In view of the pendency of the appeal as stated above before the 4th respondent, I feel that the ends of justice require that the appeal has to be decided without causing any disturbance to the petitioners' possession of the properties involved in the appeal. WP(C) 230/2008 Page numbers Accordingly I dispose of the writ petition directing that the 4th respondent shall consider and pass orders on Ext.P14 appeal as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within eight weeks of production of a copy of this judgment. In the meantime, further proceedings pursuant to Exts.P6, P10 and P13 shall stand deferred until orders are passed on Ext.P14. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE mt/-
