In this writ petition she is seeking to quash Ext.P2, a communication issued by the first respondent demanding an amount of Rs.1,93,979/- towards Differential Cost due from the petitioner. According to the petitioner an amount of Rs.2,43,351.96 is already due to her and that on receipt of Ext.P2, reiterating her claims and disputing Ext.P2, she had filed Ext.P3 before the first respondent. When Ext.P3 is pending, apprehending coercive steps, this writ petition was filed and this court has passed an interim order of stay which is continuing even now. 2. Respondents have filed a counter affidavit. According to the respondents, out of Rs.2,43,351.96/-, except Rs.95,283.66/- rest of the claim of the petitioner W.P.(C) No. 12216 OF 2007 :2 : have already been satisfied and the dates on which the amounts have been received by the petitioner are also mentioned in the affidavit. However the counter affidavit does not deal with the claim of the petitioner regarding the aforesaid Rs.95,283.66. Further, out of Rs.1,93,979/- mentioned in Ext.P2, Rs.67,765/- has already been paid by the petitioner. 3. Therefore I direct that, on receipt of a copy of this judgment, the first respondent will reconcile the conflicting claims made by himself and the also by the petitioner, quantify if any amount is due from the petitioner and issue a fresh demand to her. This exercise shall be completed within four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. 4. If any amount is due from the petitioner, the petitioner will pay the same within four weeks thereafter. The writ petition is disposed of accordingly.
