J U D G M E N T This writ petition is filed with a prayer to direct the Forest Tribunal, Kozhikode to dispose of I.A.189/05 in O.A.558/76 which is an application for amendment of the main O.A. It is submitted that the counter has been filed on 15.10.05 and still the matter is not considered by the Court below. There is some force in what the learned counsel contends and therefore I direct the Forest Tribunal, Kozhikode to consider and pass appropriate orders in I.A.189/05 and O.A.558/76 after hearing both sides within a time frame of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The writ petition is disposed of accordingly. M.N. KRISHNAN, JUDGE. ul/-
