C. No.2439 of 2009 ------------------------------------------------ Dated this the 22nd day of January, 2009 JUDGMENT The report collected by the Registry from the Munsiff's Court, Aluva shows that the case O.S.291/08 is not ripe for trial. It is only that written statement in the suit has been filed, but all the same, there is a petition pending seeking leave to amend the plaint. Objection will have to be filed by the defendants to the amendment application and that has to be considered and appropriate orders passed; issues are to be framed in the suit; opportunity to complete pre-trial steps will have to be granted and without completing all those procedures, no direction can be given to the trial court to dispose of the suit within a time frame. The direction that is sought for in this Writ Petition is only for such a direction being given. Considering W. P. C. No.2439 of 2009 -2- the stage of the suit, no direction can be so given and this Writ Petition is dismissed. K.P.BALACHANDRAN, JUDGE kns/-
