THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 06/11/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S.S.SATHEESACHANDRAN, J. ----------------------------------- W.P.(C).No.30232 of 2009 - O --------------------------------- Dated this the 6th day of November, 2009 J U D G M E N T Petitioner is the plaintiff in O.S.No.1029 of 2008 on the file of the 2nd Additional Sub Court, Thiruvananthapuram. Suit is one for money and the respondents are the defendants. The above petition is filed to issue a direction/order to the court below for an expeditious disposal of the suit. A report from the court below was called for. Learned Sub Judge has reported that enquiry on the petition moved by the first defendant who had been declared exparte earlier is pending enquiry, and till date the plaintiff has not filed objections to that petition. Application for setting aside the order declaring the first defendant exparte had been moved by that defendant as early on 22.7.2009. So, evidently, plaintiff is not taking appropriate steps for an expeditious disposal of the suit though he has come up before this Court seeking issue of direction/orders to the court below to extend top priority for hearing and disposal of his case. The learned sub Judge has also reported that targeted cases have to be attended to giving them W.P.(C).No.30232 of 2009 - O 2 top priority and the present case is not one included among such cases. Having regard to the submissions made by the counsel and also the report received from the learned Sub Judge, I direct the court below to give priority for hearing of the case and dispose it, within a reasonable time. Writ petition is disposed as above. S.S.SATHEESACHANDRAN, JUDGE. bkn/-
