PLEADER SRI.BASANTH BALAJI THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 21/05/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: PIUS.C.KURIAKOSE, J. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - W.P.(c).No.12652 OF 2008 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dated this the 21st day of May, 2008 JUDGMENT The grievance of the petitioner is that Exts.P1 to P7 applications submitted by him under Section 28 A of the Land Acquisition Act are pending for a long period of time since 1998. The relief mainly sought for in this writ petition is a direction to the second respondent Land Acquisition Officer to dispose of Exts.P1 to P7 applications expeditiously. Learned Government Pleader submits that this court has by judgment in W.P.(C)No.266/08 already directed the second respondent to finally dispose of all the applications under Section 28 A pending before him in accordance with the seniority of their registration and therefore a further direction to the second respondent will not be necessary. Under these circumstances, I dispose of the writ petition directing the second respondent to have due regard to the directions of this court in W.P.(C)No.266/08 and dispose of Exts.P1 to P7 in accordance with the seniority of their registration on his files at the earliest.
