THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 04/11/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: PIUS C.KURIAKOSE & K.SURENDRA MOHAN, JJ. ------------------------ W.P.C.No.31193 OF 2009 ------------------------ Dated this the 4th day of November, 2009 JUDGMENT Pius C.Kuriakose, J. Heard Sri.G.Sreekumar, learned counsel for the petitioner. Drawing our attention to Ext.P4 order, Mr. Sreekumar submitted that Ext.P4 was passed after advancing the hearing of the appeal without notice to the respondent/landlady. The learned counsel however submitted that it will suffice if the Appellate Authority is directed to dispose of the appeal itself early since the appellant is sure that the appeal is not maintainable in law. Under the above circumstances, we are of the view that even without notice to the respondent, this writ petition can be disposed of issuing the following orders/directions; The 1st Additional Rent Control Appellate Authority, Thrissur or any other Rent Control Appellate Authority at Thrissur, holding presently the charge of the 1st Addl. Rent Control Appellate Authority. is directed to take up RCA No.22/2009 pending on the files of the 1st Additional Rent Control Appellate Authority and dispose of that RCA in accordance with law at the earliest and at WPC.No.31193/2009 2 any rate within one month of receiving a copy of this judgment. If it becomes necessary, the hearing date of the RCA will be preponed by notice publication. PIUS C.KURIAKOSE,JUDGE K.SURENDRA MOHAN, JUDGE dpk
