SC FOR R1 & R2 SRI. GEORG SEBASTIAN THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 08/04/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. -------------------------------------------------- W.P.(C) NO.12077 OF 2010-H -------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 8th day of April, 2010 J U D G M E N T Petitioner is conducting a pig farm. By Ext.P6 order he was called upon to close down the pig farm. Against Ext.P6 order he filed Ext.P7 appeal and Ext.P8 stay petition. Appeal and stay petitions are still not considered and in the meanwhile, petitioner apprehends coercive action, on the basis of Ext.P6. It is therefore that this writ petition is filed. 2. I heard the standing counsel appearing for the respondents also. 3. Having regard to the pendency of the matter before the first respondent, I am of the view that, if the appeal could not be considered expeditiously, at least Ext.P8 stay petition is to be considered and until then Ext.P6 shall not be implemented. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of directing that the first respondent shall consider, if not Ext.P7 appeal, at least ExtP8 stay petition, within 2 weeks of production of a copy of this judgment and that until orders are passed as above, Ext.P6 shall not be implemented.
