IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH CWP No. 22832 of 2011 Date of decision: 9.12.2011 K.C. Chhibber & Company & ors …..Petitioners vs. Punjab and Sind Bank and another …..Respondents CORAM: - HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE HEMANT GUPTA HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE G.S. SANDHAWALIA Present: - Ms. Promila Nain, Advocate for the petitioners HEMANT GUPTA, J Petitioners have invoked the jurisdiction of this Court claiming a writ of mandamus directing the respondents not to take forcible possession of the property of the petitioners in pursuance of the proceedings initiated by the respondents under Securitization and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002. Suffice it to state that the petitioners earlier filed a Civil Writ Petition No. 1386 of 2009 before this Court. In the said writ petition, there were numerous interim orders passed. The said writ petition came up for final hearing before this Court on 14.11.2011, when the writ petition was withdrawn with liberty to avail the alternative remedy as may be available to the petitioners in accordance with law. But CWP No. 22832 of 2011 within one month, the petitioners have again filed the present petition without any change in the circumstances. We find that the present writ petition is nothing but a gross abuse of the process of law. There is no change in the circumstances from 14.11.2011 till today except as per the petitioners there is a threat of dispossession. Once, the petitioners are the defaulters, the threat of dispossession is nothing but consequential to the proceedings initiated against the petitioners. In view of the said fact, we dismiss the present petition with the costs of Rs. 10,000/-. The said costs be deposited with the High Court Bar Association within one week. Dismissed.
