THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 24/09/2008 , THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S. SIRI JAGAN, J. ------------------------------------ W.P.(C)No.28309 OF 2008 ---------------------------------------- Dated this the 24th day of September, 2008 JUDGMENT The petitioner is a respondent in Complaint No.118/2008 filed by the 1st respondent before the Kerala Lok Ayukta. The Lok Ayukta has issued a notice to the petitioner. The petitioner is stated to have filed a version also. The petitioner's main contention is that the Lok Ayukta does not have jurisdiction to deal with the same. The petitioner, therefore, wants to interdict the Lok Ayukta from considering Ext.P1 complaint filed by the 1st respondent. I am not inclined to entertain this writ petition since it is for the petitioner to raise the contention regrading jurisdiction before the Lok Ayukta first. In the above circumstances, the writ petition is dismissed without prejudice to the right of the petitioner to raise the contention regarding jurisdiction also before the Lok Ayukta. S. SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE Acd
