                       W.P.(C) 11566 of 2008

             -------------------------------------

                        Dated: APRIL 4, 2008

                             JUDGMENT

Counsel for the petitioners submits that pursuant to Ext.P2,

request for concurrence was considered by the RTA, Thrissur and

the same was rejected. He made an application for a copy of the

proceedings, that also had been turned down by Ext.P3.

2. One of the reasons stated is that there is no time-limit for

issuing the certified copies. The manner in which the petitioners’

request was dealt with cannot be appreciated. If a person is

aggrieved by an order affecting his legal rights, he is entitled to

pursue the statutory remedies. If that requires production of copy

of an order, he should be given such copy without delay.

3. In view of this, the writ petition is disposed of directing

that the 2nd respondent shall issue copy of the decision of the RTA,

Thrissur, taken on Exts.P1 and P2. This shall be done as

expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within two weeks of

production of a copy of this judgment.

Petitioner shall produce a copy of this judgment before the

respondent for compliance.

ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE
