THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION No.29133 OF 2011 ORDER: The action of the first respondent in disposing of the main revision filed by the petitioner, without giving her an opportunity of being heard, is questioned in this Writ Petition as being arbitrary and illegal. It is wholly unnecessary to refer to the facts in detail as this Court, by order in Writ Petition No.22865 of 2011 dated 25.08.2011, had directed the first respondent to pass orders in the stay application filed by the petitioner within a period of two weeks. The impugned order dated 23.09.2011 is an order whereby not only was the stay petition rejected, but the revision petition itself was dismissed. While I see no reason to interfere with the order of the first respondent, rejecting the petitioner’s application for stay pending disposal of the revision petition, as the said order is a reasoned order, the first respondent could not have disposed of the main revision itself without putting the petitioner on notice of his intention to do so. The order of the first respondent dated 23.09.2011, to the extent he rejected the stay application filed by the petitioner, is affirmed. However, that part of the order dated 23.09.2011, whereby the revision petition was dismissed, is set aside. The first respondent shall hear the revision petition at an early date, and pass orders thereupon after giving the petitioner an opportunity of being heard. The Writ Petition stands disposed of accordingly. However, in the circumstances, without costs. _____________________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J November 08, 2011 Note: Issue C.C. in one week.
