RAMACHANDRA MENON, J. ----------------------------------------------- WP(C) No. 27025 of 2009 ---------------------------------------- Dated, this the 19th day of January, 2010 J U D G M E N T The petitioner has approached this Court with following prayers. a) To issue appropriate writ, direction or order to enlarge the time limit prescribed by Debit Recovery Tribunal, Ernakulam in Exhibit P3 to 15 days from today to remit first instalment and second instalment will be remitted within 45 days thereafter. The sequence of events shows that the petitioner had approached the DRT by filing SA 461/2009 as borne by Ext.P1 along with Ext.P2 I.A. for stay. After considering the facts and circumstances, Ext.P3 interim order was passed by the DRT, whereby the petitioner was directed to satisfy a portion of the liability as specified therein. The petitioner has approached this Court challenging Ext.P3 order passed by the DRT stating that the time limit fixed by the DRT vide Ext.P3 might be extended by 15 days from the date of the Writ Petition, i.e., 24.09.2009 so as to remit the first instalment and the second instalment might be permitted to be remitted within 45 days thereafter. 2. When the matter came for consideration before this Court on 24.09.2009, urgent notice was ordered by speed post, also granting WP(C) No.27025/2009 2 interim stay initially for a period of 10 days, which subsequently was extended on different occasions. As on date, it is revealed that the period requested for, from the part of the petitioner, is already over and there is nothing further to be considered or adjudicated in this Writ Petition. Since the prayer for enlargement of time stands already satisfied, no further orders are necessary and the Writ Petition is closed accordingly. P. R. RAMACHANDRA MENON JUDGE dnc
