THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 10/04/2008,THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ====================================== WRIT PETITION NO.11904 OF 2008 ====================================== Dated this the 10th day of April 2008 JUDGMENT Petitioner submits that in respect of the stage carriage bus bearing Reg.No.KL-5/N 6211, he filed an application for replacement of the vehicle by a later model vehicle. The application has been declined to be accepted by the first respondent for not enclosing the original documents. It is stated that the reason for the petitioner's inability to enclose the original documents is that the petitioner is having a civil dispute with the 2nd respondent which is the subject matter of O.S.17/2007 on the file of the Munsiff's Court, Kanjirappally. 2. Be that as it may, the question whether the request of replacement should be entertained or not is a matter for the first respondent to consider and therefore I direct that the petitioner may make a suitable application to the first respondent in this behalf. If an application is made, the first respondent shall consider the same, after issuing notice to the petitioner and respondents 2 and 3. The first respondent shall pass final orders, W.P.(C)No.11904/2008 2 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within four weeks thereafter. Petitioner shall produce a copy of the judgment before the first respondent for compliance. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE css/
