Petitioner is respondent No.3 in O.P. (Arb.) No.965 of 2008 of the said court, preferred by respondent No.1. There is an ex parte order and attachment of the property of petitioner. Thereon petitioner preferred Ext.P1, application to set aside the ex parte order and Ext.P2, application to condone the delay in filing that application. Those applications were filed on 20- 02-2010. Learned counsel states that though hearing of the applications was advanced, again it happened to be adjourned to 03-08-2010. Petitioner is a senior citizen, ailing, and wants an early disposal of Exts.P1 and P2, applications. Having regard to the circumstances stated I direct learned Additional District Judge- II, Ernakulam to dispose of Exts.P1 and P2, applications as expeditiously as possible. It will be open to the petitioner to request hearing of the said applications to be advanced to a near date. Writ petition is disposed of as above. (THOMAS P JOSEPH, JUDGE) Sbna/-
