THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
OP(C) NO. 1003 OF 2015 2
JUDGMENT
The original petition is filed to set aside the order
passed by the Court of the Munsiff, Devikulam,
transferring O.S.No.360/2013 to the Munnar Special
Tribunal.
2. When the original petition came up for
consideration on 10.04.2023, this Court had called for a
report from the court below to ascertain the status of
O.S.No.360/2013.
3. The learned Munsiff, Devikulam, by
communication dated 11.04.2023, has informed this Court
that O.S.No.360/2013 was transferred to the Tribunal and
re-numbered as MTOP No.335/2014. On the abolishment
of the Tribunal, the suit was re-transferred back to the
court below and has been re-numbered as
O.S.No.468/2019. The suit is now pending consideration.
However, in view of the stay order passed by this Court,
the suit has not progressed.
4. Heard; Sri.Sreekumar G. Chelur, the learned
counsel appearing for the petitioners and
Sri.M.Gopikrishnan Nambiar, the learned counsel
appearing for the respondent.
5. In the light of the above communication, I hold
that the original petition has become infructuous.
6. Resultantly, the original petition is dismissed as
infructuous.
7. The Court of the Munsiff, Devikulam is directed
to consider and dispose of O.S.No.468/2019, in accordance
with law and as expeditiously as possible.
The Registry is directed to communicate a copy of this
judgment to the court below.
