J U D G M E N T According to the petitioner, in respect of his property having an extent of 2 acres and 41 cents of land in old survey No.2667 of Kootikkal Village, there were certain errors in the survey records and therefore he filed Ext.P3 application to the 3rd respondent for rectifying the said errors. It is stated that despite having made Ext.P3, the 3rd respondent has not considered the same or passed orders thereon. It is in this background, the writ petition has been filed praying for a direction to the 3rd respondent to pass orders on Ext.P3 on an expeditious basis. 2. If as stated by the petitioner, Ext.P3 application has been received by the 3rd respondent, I see no justification for delaying final orders thereon. 3. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of directing that the 3rd respondent shall consider and pass orders on Ext.P3, if the W.P.(C) No. 13448/2008 2 same has been received and is pending before him. Orders on Ext.P3 shall be passed as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within 4 weeks from the date of production of a copy of this judgment. Petitioner shall produce a copy of the judgment before the 3rd respondent for compliance. ANTONY DOMINIC JUDGE Vi
