Although it is the contention of the petitioner that attempt is to nullify the proceedings evidenced by Exts.P1 to P4, which are pending before the 2nd respondent, fact remains that Ext.P5 is an order which is appealable in terms of Rule 18 of the Transfer of Registry Rules. Therefore, without expressing anything on the merits, the write petition is disposed of leaving it open to the petitioner to file appeal against Ext.P5. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
