BY SR.GOVT.PLEADER SRI.P.N.SANTHOSH THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 18/01/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. =============== W.P.(C) NO. 1060 OF 2008 A ===================== Dated this the 18th day of January, 2008 J U D G M E N T Petitioner's vehicle was plying on the strength of temporary permit which was valid till 5/1/08. Subsequently for issue of temporary permit, petitioner again submitted Ext.P4. It is stated that the application was considered and although permit was ordered to be granted, the same has not been issued as the petitioner has a vehicle only on a lease agreement and not as a registered owner. 2. The fact that a person need not be a registered owner to be issued a permit is seen settled by the decision of this court reported in M.Raveendran v. RTO (1995(1) KLJ 96) and therefore the matter is required to be considered in the light of the judgment referred to above. Accordingly, I dispose of this writ petition directing that the WPC 1060/08 :2 : request of the petitioner will be dealt with in the light of the decision of this court referred to above, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within two weeks of production of a copy of this judgment. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE. Rp
