In this original petition filed under Article 227 of the Constitution of India, the petitioners, who are the defendants in O.S.No.479 of 2015 pending before the Munsiff Court-III, Neyyattinkara, seek early disposal of the same.
2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners as well as Adv.Sri.Arun V.G. appearing for the respondents/plaintiffs.
3. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the respondents that a suit of the year 2015 coming under the five plus year old category, requires urgent disposal to safeguard the interest of the petitioner and therefore, early O.P.(C)No.1967 of 2021 ..3..
disposal, as sought for, is liable to be allowed.
4. Though early disposal is not seriously opposed by the learned counsel appearing for the respondents, he would submit that he proposes to file an amendment application.
5. The learned Munsiff, as per letter dated 06.12.2021, expressed the willingness to dispose of this five plus year old matter within a period of eight months.
Therefore, I direct the Additional Munsiff Court- III, Neyyattinkara to try and dispose of O.S.No.479 of 2015 at the earliest, at any rate, within a period of six months from the date of production or receipt of a copy of this judgment.
The right of the parties to move as per law shall not be affected, though there is direction for early disposal.
