Judgment Thottathil B.Radhakrishnan, J. The petitioners seek direction to the Family Court, Thiruvananthapuram to expedite the disposal of two matters, one of which is filed late in 2009 and the other, in early 2010. One is an application for divorce between the first petitioner and the respondent and the other is a suit by three petitioners of whom petitioners 2 and 3 are the parents of the first petitioner. They have sued the respondent, i.e., the wife of the first petitioner for money on the allegation that her higher studies were funded by the parents of the first petitioner. We do not find any extraordinary circumstance which should OPFC2147/11 -: 2 :- trigger any direction by this Court for expeditious disposal. We, however, leave it to the petitioners to find out ways and means either for settling the dispute or even for requesting the Family Court to expedite the matter. We are also told that there is yet another litigation pending at the instance of the respondent-wife in the Family Court, Thiruvalla. We also leave open the right of the parties to seek for consolidation of proceedings to one court. Subject to this, the original petition is dismissed. Thottathil B.Radhakrishnan, Judge.
