IN THE HIGH COURT OF KERALA AT ERNAKULAM PRESENT : THE HONOURABLE MR.

BY ADV. SRI.SAKIR.K.H. RESPONDENT(S): ------------------------ 1. THE CIRCLE INSPECTOR OF POLICE, PATHANAMTHITTA POLICE STATION, PIN-689 645. 2. THE DISTRICT COLLECTOR, PATHANAMTHITTA DISTRICT, PIN-689 645. 3. THE REVENUE DIVISIONAL OFFICER, ADOOR, PATHANAMTHITTA DISTRICT, PIN-689 645. R1 TO R3 BY GOVERNMENT PLEADER SRI.P.NARAYANAN THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 20/10/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: sts ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ------------------------- W.P.(C.) No.32070 of 2010 (G) --------------------------------- Dated, this the 20th day of October, 2010 J U D G M E N T By Ext.P2 order dated 06/04/2010, the 2 nd respondent ordered confiscation of the vehicle bearing Regn.No.KL-7 E 2961 on the ground that the vehicle was involved in the unauthorised transportation of river sand. This order has become final. Now that the petitioner has filed Ext.P3 application dated 15/10/2010, requesting the District Collector to allow the petitioner 3 months' more time to remit the value of the vehicle ordered to be remitted in Ext.P2. Complaining that orders have not been passed on Ext.P3, the writ petition has been filed. 2. First of all, in Ext.P2 order dated 06/04/2010, the time for remittance allowed to the petitioner was 30 days. This period has expired long ago. It is thereafter that the present request has been made. In my view, this Court will not be justified in directing the 2 nd respondent to consider the belated request made by the petitioner seeking further time for payment. The writ petition fails and is accordingly dismissed. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) jg
