J U D G M E N T This writ petition is filed by a 76 year old lady with a prayer to dispose of the appeal A.A.1/08 pending before the Land Reforms Appellate Authority, Alappuzha. It is submitted that proceedings has been initiated as early as in 1983 and 25 years had elapsed without finality of the matter. She would submit that as she is aged 76 she may be entitled to enjoy the usufructs of the order by giving a direction to the Court to dispose of the matter. Considering the factum that she is an aged lady of 76 years and further the fact that the litigation has started about 25 years back I direct the Land Reforms Appellate Authority, Alappuzha to consider and dispose of A.A.1/08 as expeditiously as possible at any rate within three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The writ petition is disposed of accordingly. M.N. KRISHNAN, JUDGE. ul/-
