        DATED THIS THE            4TH DAY OF MARCH, 2009

                                JUDGMENT

The petitioner availed a housing loan from the respondent.

On default in repayment, SARFAESI Act proceedings were

initiated. The petitioner has since been dispossessed also,

following the orders of the Chief Judicial Magistrate. On

24.2.2009, the creditor respondent was required to state whether

the transaction could be regularised. Today, it is pointed out that

after availing the loan in August 2006, no payments were made

after November, 2006 and repeatedly even instalment cheques

were dishonoured. Later, offering to regularise the transaction,

the petitioner issued a cheque for Rs.70,000/-. That was also

dishonoured. The respondent is, therefore, not inclined to

regularise the transaction. I am sure that respondent cannot be

compelled by this court to regularise the transaction. Under such

circumstances, it is ordered that if the entire amounts are paid off

in five equal monthly instalments payable on or before 28th of

every month, commencing from April 2009, after making an

WP(C) 5371/2009 2

initial deposit of Rs.1,50,000/- on or before 28.3.2009, further

distress action including sale will be deferred and dropped. If

there is default in remitting any of the instalments as aforesaid,

the benefit of this judgment will stand recalled automatically and

respondents will be at liberty to proceed with further action.
