(BY SRI.M.VINOD KUMAR, AGA. FOR R-1, 2 AND 4)
THIS WRIT PETITION IS FILED UNDER ARTICLES 226 AND
227 OF THE CONSTITUTION OF INDIA, PRAYING TO DIRECT
THE RESPONDENT NO.1 TO 9 TO COMPLY WITH THE
JUDGEMENT AND DECREE DATED 07.04.2015 PASSED IN
O.S.NO.506/2014 ON THE FILE OF IV ADDL.CIVIL JUDGE AND
JMFC SHIVAMOGGA AT ANNEXURE-A AND ETC.,
THIS PETITION COMING ON FOR PRELIMINARY HEARING
THIS DAY, THE COURT MADE THE FOLLOWING:-
3
ORDER
The petitioner is before this Court under Articles
226 and 227 of the Constitution of India praying for a
writ of mandamus directing the respondent Nos.1 to 9
to comply with the judgment and decree dated
07.04.2015 passed in O.S.No.506/2014 on the file of IV
Additional Civil Judge and JMFC, Shivamogga at
Annexure-A.
2. Heard Sri.Sanath Kumar Shetty.K, learned
counsel for the petitioner and learned Additional
Government Advocate who has taken notice on behalf of
the respondent Nos.1, 2 and 4. Perused the writ petition
papers.
3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits
that respondent Nos.1 to 9 have not complied with the
judgment and decree dated 07.04.2015 passed in
O.S.No.506/2014 wherein it is declared as under:
"It is hereby declared that the name of the petitioner is Asra Fathima' and she is entitled to be called by that name in all her educational and service records and future transactions.
Mandatory injunction is granted by directing the defendants and their authorities to effect necessary changes in the entries in the school, college, service and other records of the plaintiff that are in their power and custody, so as to reflect the name of the plaintiff as 'Asra Fathima.'"
4. It is the grievance of the petitioner that
changes as directed is not carried out. In view of not
carrying out the changes as directed, it would become
difficult for her to receive her salary through the bank.
5. On hearing the learned counsel
Sri.Sanathkumar Shetty.K, for the petitioner, I am of
the view that the petitioner would not be entitled for the
writ of mandamus as sought in the writ petition at this
stage. The jurisdiction of High Court under Article 226
of the Constitution cannot be converted to executing
court. Moreover, it is submitted that Ex.No.65/2016 is
pending consideration before the Trial Court and
warrant has been issued to respondent Nos.1 to 9.
When Code of Civil Procedure provides provision for
execution of the decree, this Court would restrain itself
from exercising its jurisdiction under Article 226 of the
Constitution of India. Therefore, it is for the petitioner to
pursue the execution case which is already pending
before the Trial Court.
For the reasons stated above, writ petition is
rejected for the present.
Execution Petition No.65/2016 pending before the
Trial Court be expedited.
