JOSEPH, J. -------------------------------------- O.P.(Crl.) No.1711 of 2011 -------------------------------------- Dated this the 27th day of May, 2011. JUDGMENT This petition is for a direction for early disposal of M.C.No.85 of 2008 of the court of learned Munsiff-Magistrate, Paravoor. That proceeding is initiated by the petitioner under provisions of the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act. Petitioner states that there are two other cases pending in the Family Court, Kollam and a petition has been filed in this Court for early disposal of the said cases. Petitioner requests this Court to issue a direction to the learned Munsiff-Magistrate for early disposal of M.C.No.85 of 2008 pending in that court. 2. M.C.No.85 of 2008 is a proceeding of the year 2008. Without understanding the volume of work of the court concerned and priority for disposal of old cases it is not proper for this Court to issue such a direction. But, having regard to the fact that the proceeding is of the year 2008, petitioner is permitted to request learned Munsiff-Magistrate for early disposal of M.C.No.85 of 2008. If OP(Crl.) No.1711/2011 2 any such request is made learned Magistrate shall consider the same and pass appropriate orders having regard to the grievance of petitioner and all other relevant circumstances. Petition is disposed of as above. THOMAS P.JOSEPH, Judge. cks
