JUDGMENT Balakrishnan Nair, J. This writ petition is filed challenging Ext.P2, which is a copy of the proceedings of the Rent Controller in R.C.P.No.11 of 2006 impounding the document produced by him and also directing to pay stamp duty. 2. The petitioner raised various contentions against Ext.P4. Going by the scheme of the Act, we find that the petitioner has got statutory remedies under the Kerala Stamp Act, 1959. In view of the said position, it is unnecessary for us to consider the matter on merits. Accordingly, the writ petition is closed without prejudice to the contentions of the petitioner and his right to challenge Ext.P3 before the appropriate forum or to resist the enforcement of Ext.P3 in appropriate proceedings. K.Balakrishnan Nair, Judge. P.N.Ravindran, Judge. ess 10/1
