BY ADV. SRI.K.S.ANIL, SC THIS CONTEMPT OF COURT CASE (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 14/08/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: C.N.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, J. .................................................................... Cont. Case (C) No.1149 of 2008 .................................................................... Dated this the 14th day of August, 2008. JUDGMENT The Contempt Case is filed stating that KSEB has not given electric connection to the petitioner based on the judgment. Even though judgment was pronounced on 19.6.2007, the petitioner has waited for over an year to complain that the connection is not so far given to him. Standing Counsel submitted that on account of third respondent's (in the W.P.(C)) objection, connection could not be given to the petitioner and the matter is now referred to the Additional District Magistrate for his decision. While issuing judgment this court assumed that connection to third respondent is given through the property of petitioner which is based on petitioner's own statement. However, the sketch produced by KSEB does not show that third respondent is given connection over petitioner's property. If third respondent enjoys a connection over petitioner's property, then he has no right to object connection being given to the petitioner over his property. In any case since the matter is pending before the ADM, I dispose of the Contempt Case with direction to the ADM to decide the matter within a period of one month from date of receipt of copy of this judgment. The 2 ADM should consider judgments both in the W.P. and Contempt Case and also the undertaking given by third respondent in the W.P. before final decision is taken. The petitioner will produce copy of this judgment before the ADM for compliance. C.N.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR Judge pms
