SHRI.M.R.SABU THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 06/08/2007,THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S.SIRI JAGAN, J. ========================== W.P.(C).No. 19497 of 2007 ========================== Dated this the 6th day of August, 2007 J U D G M E N T The petitioner obtained a judgment in M.V.A.A.No.71/07 for grant of regular permit to the petitioner. Petitioner's grievance is that in spite of the same, by Ext.P3 order the 1st respondent has adjourned the matter for filing appeal. 2. I have heard the learned Government Pleader also. 3. This court has time and again held that R.T.A. being a quasi judicial authority, they cannot file appeal against the order of the S.T.A.T. If at all, only the Government could take up the matter further. In the above circumstances, the 1st respondent is bound to comply with the direction in Ext.P2 judgment. Accordingly, I direct the 1st respondent to pass final orders pursuant to Ext.P2 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. However, this would be subject to any interim orders w.p.c.19497/07 2 or final orders that may be passed in the proceedings that may be initiated by the Government against Ext.P2. The writ petition is disposed of as above. Sd/- sdk+ S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE ///True copy/// P.A. to Judge.
