THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 07/08/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. =============== W.P.(C) NO. 23845 OF 2008 L ==================== Dated this the 7th day of August, 2008 J U D G M E N T The challenge in this writ petition is against Ext.P2. By Ext.P2, request made by the petitioner for expediting disposal of OP(MV) No.600/2006 has been declined by the Tribunal. A reading of Ext.P2 shows that considering the request of the petitioner, Tribunal found that the case was not a fit one for ordering expeditious disposal. The Tribunal has also taken note of the fact that not even the written statement has been filed. In view of the aforesaid factual findings entered into by the Tribunal in Ext.P2, I do not think this court will be justified in setting any time frame for the disposal of the OP(MV) as prayed for in this writ petition. 2. Be that as it may, it will be open to the petitioner to request the Tribunal for expediting the trial of the case. Writ petition is disposed of as above. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
