(TRUE COPY) P.A TO JUDGE M.N.KRISNAN, J. -------------------------------- W.P.(C).16770/2007 ----------------------------- Dated this 2nd day of August, 2007 JUDGMENT This writ petition is filed seeking a direction to the Subordinate Judge, Kochi, to dispose of the stay application filed in C.M.A. 9/2007. The order in appeal is one directing the detention of the first respondent in Civil Prison for disobedience of the order of the Court for a period of one year. This is a serious matter which requires detailed consideration at the hands of the Court. Therefore, I feel instead of directing the stay application be disposed of, the learned Sub Judge can be directed to dispose of C.M.A itself within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment and till then the execution of the order, which is impugned in the C.M.A, shall be kept in abeyance. 2. One of the parties can take a copy of this judgment and produce it before the Subordinate Judge, Kochi, for necessary compliance. The Writ Petition is disposed of accordingly. M.N.KRISHNAN, JUDGE mrcs
