THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 22/07/2009 ALONG WITH WPC.NO.14998 OF 2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: Kss S.S.SATHEESACHANDRAN, J. ----------------------------- W.P.(C).No.14861 OF 2009 -------------------------- Dated this the 22nd day of July 2009 ------------------------------------- JUDGMENT The grievance raised by the petitioner in the writ petition is that a decree obtained by him in O.S 220/1998 on the file of the Munsiff Magistrate Court, Paravur has been challenged by the defendants as A.S 150/2002 and it is still pending on the file of Second Additional District Court, Kollam. Petitioner seeks an early hearing and disposal of that appeal. That alone is the relief claimed in the writ petition. 2. Notice was given to the respondents. But after service, none of them has entered appearance. A report was called from the Second Additional District Judge to ascertain whether the appeal is W.P.(C).No.14861 OF 2009 2 ready for hearing. It is reported, the appeal is ready for hearing and it can be disposed at an early date. 3. Having regard to the facts and circumstances and the submission made, I direct the learned Additional District Judge to hear and dispose the appeal as expeditiously as possible after hearing the counsel on both sides, at any rate within a span of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Hand over a copy of the judgment to the counsel for the petitioner on usual terms and transmit a copy to the court below forthwith. Writ petition is closed with the above direction.
