THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION
ON 29.01.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE
FOLLOWING:
W.P(C).No.2400 of 2021 2
JUDGMENT
The petitioner, who has filed an Appeal No.246 of 2018 before the
Tribunal for Local Self Government Institutions, Thiruvananthapuram,
aggrieved by the issuance of development permit to the 2 nd respondent
states that although a stay petition bearing I.A.No.555 of 2018 was filed
along with the appeal as early as in April 2018, the stay applications
have not been taken up by the Tribunal for consideration.
2. I have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. In the nature
of the order that I propose to pass, I do not deem it necessary to hear the
respondents.
On an enquiry with the Tribunal this Court understands that the
Tribunal is currently entertaining requests from counsel for posting I.As
pertaining to appeals filed in the years 2017 and 2018 and granting
postings of the I.As regularly. Taking note of the said fact, I dispose this
Writ Petition by directing the Tribunal for Local Self Government
Institutions to consider and pass orders in I.A.No.555 of 2018 in Appeal
No.246 of 2018 pending before it within three weeks from the date of
receipt of a copy of this judgment, after hearing the petitioner and the 6 th
respondent. The petitioner shall produce a copy of the writ petition
together with a copy of this judgment before the 7 th respondent Tribunal
for further action.
