                      W.P.(C) NO.8464 of 2007
                 -----------------------------------------

            Dated this the 14th day of September, 2007

                               JUDGMENT

The petitioners seem to be essentially aggrieved by Ext.P4

proclamation of sale issued by the Recovery Officer, the third

respondent herein. The petitioners have adequate remedies as against

Ext.P4 either before the Recovery Officer or by way of an appeal

before the Debt Recovery Tribunal. In my opinion, appropriate remedy

available to the petitioners is to move the appropriate authority under

the Recovery of Debts Due to Banks and Financial Institutions Act.

Without prejudice to the right of the petitioner to do so, the writ

petition is disposed of.

In the facts and circumstances of the case, further proceedings

pursuant to Ext.P4 shall be kept in abeyance for a period of one month

to enable the petitioner to approach the appropriate authority.

V.GIRI, JUDGE
