THIS CONTEMPT OF COURT CASE (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR
ADMISSION ON 30.03.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE
FOLLOWING:
2
Con.Case(C).No.563 OF 2020 IN WP(C). 41508/2017
JUDGMENT
Dated this the 30th day of March 2021
This contempt petition is filed complaining
that the directives contained in the judgment dated
08.02.2019 in W.P.(C)No.41508/2017 is not complied
with.
2. The subject issue relates to a proposed
construction carried out by the petitioner,
application submitted by the petitioner and the
consequential direction issued by this Court to
finalise the application at the earliest possible
time. The grievance of the petitioner in the
contempt petition is that, the directions issued in
the judgment are not complied with.
3. However an affidavit is filed by the 1st
respondent, from where I am satisfied that certain
directions were issued to the petitioner by the
Secretary of the Thiruvananthapuram Corporation in
order to process the application submitted by the
Con.Case(C).No.563 OF 2020 IN WP(C). 41508/2017
petitioner for building permit, which was not
complied with by the petitioner.
4. However, today when the matter was taken
up, learned counsel for the petitioner submitted
that, the directions issued by the Secretary were
complied with on 17.03.2021.
In that view of the matter, I do not think
there was any deliberate and willful action on the
part of the respondents in complying with the
directions issued by this Court in order to proceed
against them under the Contempt of Courts Act,
1971, atleast for the time being. That being so,
nothing survives to be considered in the contempt
petition, the Contempt of Court case is closed
accordingly.
