PLEADER SRI.BIJOY CHANDRAN THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 04/08/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: P.R.RAMACHANDRA MENON, J --------------------------- W.P(C) No. 24100 of 2010-J ---------------------------- Dated this the 4th day of August, 2010. J U D G M E N T The grievance of the petitioner, with regard to the satisfaction of the liability to the respondent, was agitated earlier by filing W.P(C) No.17716 of 2009, which led to Ext.P1 judgment. Pursuant to Ext.P1 judgment, the petitioner was given an opportunity of hearing and the matter was considered by the concerned respondent, who passed Ext.P2 order, informing the petitioner to satisfy the liability to the specified extent, in the prescribed manner. 2. Obviously, Ext.P2 is not under challenge in this Writ Petition. The only prayer in the Writ Petition is to direct the respondents to consider Ext.P3 representation and to recover the outstanding dues from the property mortgaged, as specified therein. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that, the prayer sought for is only to have a disposal of Ext.P3, so as to enable the petitioner to sell a portion of the property by private sale and to satisfy the entire outstanding liability for which a total period W.P(C) No. 24100 of 2010-J 2 of six months' time is sought for. Obviously, Ext.P3 representation is dated 14.1.2010 and this being the position, the period of six months sought for by the petitioner is already over. As such, there is nothing further to be considered in the Writ Petition. However, taking note of the persuasive submission made by the learned counsel for the petitioner, that the steps are half way through and that the liability will be cleared within the shortest possible time, the petitioner is granted a further period of one month, so as to finalise the proceedings in accordance with law. It is made clear that, all further coercive proceedings pursuant to Ext.P2 shall be kept in abeyance for a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The Writ Petition is disposed of. Sd/- P.R.RAMACHANDRA MENON JUDGE //True Copy// P.A to Judge ab W.P(C) No. 24100 of 2010-J 3
