TO JUDGE dlk ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ---------------------------------------------------- W.P.(C) No. 30701 OF 2011 ----------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 18th day of November, 2011 J U D G M E N T According to the petitioner in 1998 he made an application to the 2nd respondent for mutation of a property situated in Sy.Nos.965/1 and 965/4A of Kalloorkad Village. It is stated that in pursuance of the application the property was also surveyed but so far final orders in the matter have not been passed. It is stated that in the meanwhile, he also filed a civil suit in the matter and it was dismissed. Then the petitioner filed R.S.A.1074/10 before this court and by Ext.P5 judgment this court confirmed the dismissal after leaving it open to the petitioner to pursue the matter under the Transfer of Registry Rules for getting the property muted. Thus the petitioner has filed this writ petition seeking a direction to the 2nd respondent to finalize the matter and pass orders on the applications for mutation. W.P.(C) No. 30701 OF 2011 :2 : 2. As already seen the case of the petitioner is that the application for mutation of the property is pending consideration of the 2nd respondent. It is also his case that the litigation in the matter has resulted in the delay in the proceedings and now all these proceedings have been completed and the litigation is also concluded as per the judgment in Ext.P5 judgment. In such circumstances I direct the 2nd respondent to take expeditious action on the application made by the petitioner for mutation of the property which is pending before him. 3. The petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment before the 2nd respondent for compliance. The writ petition is disposed of as above. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE ul/-
