THIS OP (RENT CONTROL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 17/01/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: PIUS C.KURIAKOSE & N.K.BALAKRISHNAN, JJ. ------------------------ O.P.R.C.No. 194 OF 2011 ------------------------ Dated this the 17th day of January, 2011 JUDGMENT Pius C.Kuriakose, J. This original petition under Article 227 is filed by the landlords, who are respondents in RCA No.24/2010 which is pending before the IInd Additional District Court, (Rent Control Appellate Authority) Kollam. The grievance of the petitioners is that, as there is presently no presiding officer in that court, early disposal of the RCA cannot be facilitated. According to the petitioners, though several other appeals pending before the IInd Additional District Court(Rent Control Appellate Authority) were transferred to other courts in the same station, RCA No.24/2010 is not transferred. We feel that the petitioners will have to move the District Court, Kollam with appropriate petition for transfer under Rule 17 of the Kerala Kerala Buildings (Lease & Rent Control) Rules. We are sure that if transfer application is filed, the learned District Judge will take a proper and just decision on the same O.P.R.CNo.194/2011 2 after issuing notice to the respondents through the advocate who has filed the RCA on their behalf .
