                                                      JUDGMENT

(Delivered by the Hon'ble Chief Justice) We have heard Mr.P.Vijendran, learned counsel for the

appellant, and Mrs.V.Vijayalakshmi, learned counsel for the

respondent.

2. The appellant is challenging the order dated 27.7.2023

passed by the learned Single Judge in W.P.No.21782 of 2023,

thereby granting four weeks' time to pay the amount and also

directing the respondent to consider the representation of the

appellant dated 8.6.2023. The appellant is aggrieved by the order

to the extent of granting only four weeks' time to make the

payment.

3. According to learned counsel for the appellant, the amount

to be paid towards arrears of tax, water charges, sewerage charges

since 2018 was uploaded on one day and it is not possible for the

members of the appellant society to pay the amount in a short time.

4. Learned counsel for the respondent submits that, on

1.9.2023, four weeks' time was granted to the members of the

appellant society to make the payment.

5. We are not entering into the debate as to whether the writ

petition was maintainable on behalf of the society.

6. The learned Single Judge has granted four weeks' time

from the date of receipt of a copy of the order for making the

payment. We extend the time to make the payment of the arrears

of tax, water charges, sewerage charges as directed by the learned

Single Judge for a further period of four weeks from today.

The writ appeal is disposed of accordingly. There will be no

order as to costs.
