THIS CONTEMPT OF COURT CASE (CIVIL) HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON
12.03.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
C.O.(C) No. 737/2018
in W.P.(C) No. 26451/2017 :2:
Dated this the 12th day of March, 2021.
JUDGMENT
This Contempt Case is filed complaining that the directives
contained in the judgment dated 12.12.2017 in W.P.(C) No. 26451 of
2017 is not complied with.
2. A direction was issued in respect of grant of pattayam in
favour of the petitioner in regard to a land measuring 2 acres and 83
sq. meters situated in Re-Survey No. 105/12/ part in Block No. 48 of
Marayoor Village.
3. Today, when the matter is taken up, the learned Senior
Government Pleader submitted that already a decision is taken in
accordance with the Land Assignment Act and the Rules to provide
pattayam to the petitioner in respect of the property claimed by him
and mentioned to in the judgment and that some more time is
required to issue pattayam, since the permission from the District
Collector is required.
4. Taking into account the said aspect, I am of the considered
opinion that Contempt Case may be closed giving liberty to the
petitioner to re-open the Contempt Case, if situation warrants. C.O.(C) No. 737/2018
5. Accordingly, this Contempt Case is closed, recording the
above said aspect that necessary steps will be taken to issue pattayam
to the petitioner at the earliest possible after obtaining permission
from the District Collector.
However, I make it clear that if the direction is not complied with
within a reasonable time, the petitioner would be at liberty to reopen
the proceedings.
