C.N.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR,J. -------------------------------------------- O.P.No. 1521 OF 2001 -------------------------------------------- Dated this the 19th day of March, 2007 JUDGMENT Petitioners have approached this Court for direction to the Panchayat to number their building in their names in the records of the Panchayat. It is seen that the property was subject matter of litigation between petitioners and respondents 3 to 8 and final orders are now issued in favour of the petitioners. Panchayat declined to number the building in the name of the petitioners only because of pendency of contempt petition as is evident from Ext.P11. In any case, contempt case is stated to be closed and provisional numbering is already done in favour of the petitioners under interim orders of this Court. In the circumstances, O.P. is disposed of directing the second respondent to number the buildings of the petitioners in the name of the petitioners if final orders of court or Tribunal are in favour of the petitioners.
