 OP (MAC).No.39 OF 2021

                                       2




                                JUDGMENT

Dated this the 9th day of April 2021

The petitioner is the second respondent in OP (MV)

No.139/2018 on the MACT, Pala. Compensation was

sought in respect of death of the son of the petitioner in

a motor accident. The grievance of the petitioner is

that since the vehicle is involved, there is an

attachment. It causes difficulty to the petitioner herein.

Accordingly, he seeks an early disposal or for

consideration of application for vacating the order of

attachment.

2. Having considered the entire facts, I feel that

it will be in the interest of justice of both the sides that

a direction is given to the Tribunal for an expeditious

consideration of the claim petition itself which will

definitely beneficial for the claimants. Having

considered this, I am not inclined to issue notice to the

claimants for this limited purpose alone.

3. Accordingly, there will be a direction to the OP (MAC).No.39 OF 2021

court below to take up and dispose of the OP (MV)

No.139/2018 itself, as expeditiously as possible, at any

rate, within a period of six months from the date of

receipt of a copy of this judgment and after giving both

sides to place on record their documents and evidences.

The original petition is disposed of as above.
