OP(C) No. 1033 of 2024




             Dated this the 29th day of May, 2024

                           JUDGMENT

This Original Petition has been filed for expeditious

disposal of a receiver application filed as I.A. No.6/2022 in

O.S. No.3/2016 on the file of the Additional District Court-VII,

Thiruvananthapuram.

2. I called for a report from the Additional District

Court-VII, Thiruvananthapuram. The learned Additional

District Judge reported that further proceedings in O.S.

No.3/2016 has been stayed by this Court in O.P.(C) 639/2023

and hence I. A. No.6/2022 cannot be disposed of. Today, the

stay order passed in O.P.(C) No.639/2023, staying the suit

(O.S. No.3/2016) has been lifted.

3. The learned Additional District Judge further reported

that the Additional District Court-IV, is exclusively set apart

for conducting trial of murder cases and hence he has

already made a request to the Principal District Judge,

Thiruvananthapuram for transferring O.S. No.3/2016 to any

other Additional District Court.

4. In view of the submission of the learned counsel for

the petitioners, respondents and also taking into account the

report of the learned Additional District Judge, this Original

Petition is disposed of as follows:

The Principal District Judge, Thiruvananthapuram is

directed to immediately transfer O.S. No.3/2016 to any other

Additional District Court with less pendency. The learned

Principal District Judge shall also direct the Additional District

Court where the case is transferred to dispose of I.A.

No.6/2022 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within a

period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of

this judgment.
