By the judgment, the respondent was directed to examine as to whether any admitted amount is due to the petitioners and if so, to pay the same within 2 months of receipt of a copy of the judgment. 2. On instructions, learned Government Pleader submits that the claim was considered and was rejected by order dated 28/11/2007. If that be so, it was up to the petitioners to have pursued their remedies against the said order of rejection. That apart, this Contempt is filed more than two years after the judgment was rendered. This clearly is time barred. For that reason also, the contempt is only to be dismissed and I do so. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
