True copy tga KURIAN JOSEPH J. ---------------------------------------------- Writ Petition (Civil) No.22775 of 2004 ---------------------------------------------- Dated 26th November, 2007. J U D G M E N T Petitioners approached this court praying for a direction to the 4th respondent Appellate Forum to number the appeal, even without remitting the amounts as ordered by the District Forum. It is submitted that during the pendency of the appeal, the amounts have been remitted. There is also an interim order to number the appeal. In that view of the matter, it is not necessary for this court to go into the other legal contentions. The writ petition is hence disposed of leaving open the contentions. There will be a direction to the 4th respondent to consider Ext.P2 appeal on merits expeditiously. KURIAN JOSEPH, JUDGE. tgs
