NO.405/2010 DATED 18.12.2010 ON THE FILE OF THE PRINCIPAL DISTRICT COURT, THRISSUR. RESPONDENT'S EXHIBITS : NIL -------------------------------------- / TRUE COPY / P.A. TO JUDGE VK THOMAS P. JOSEPH, J. -------------------------------------- O.P.(C) Nos.3427 of 2011 & 3441 of 2011 -------------------------------------- Dated this the 25th day of October, 2011. JUDGMENT Petitioners suffered a judgment and decree for prohibitory injunction in O.S.Nos.115 of 2010 and 171 of 2009 of the court of learned Principal Sub Judge, Irinjalakkuda. They challenged those judgments and decrees in A.S.Nos.405 of 2010 and 404 of 2010 respectively of the Principal District Court, Thrissur. The request of petitioners is to direct learned Principal District Judge to dispose of the appeals as early as possible. 2. Learned counsel submitted that petitioners have with them all licences and other permissions required from the authorities concerned for blasting operation but the decree prevents them from doing their lawful occupation. 3. It is seen that the suits are of the years 2009 and 2010 and the appeals are of the year 2010. Having regard to the circumstances I am not inclined to think that a direction should be issued for early disposal of the appeals. Petitioner can apprise the learned Principal District Judge of their difficulties on account of the decrees of the trial court and request the learned Principal District Judge for expeditious disposal of the appeals if otherwise the appeals are ripe for hearing. If any such request is made, learned Principal OP(C)No.3427 & 3441/2011 2 District Judge shall consider it and pass appropriate orders in the matter as circumstances warranted. With the above observations, Original Petitions are disposed of. THOMAS P.JOSEPH, Judge. cks
