Dated this the 17th day of June, 2010
J U D G M E N T
Petitioner is occupying quarter No. F-10 in the police family
quarters, Thiruvananthapuram. Ext.P1 order was passed by the 3rd
respondent ordering his eviction. Implementing Ext.P1, the 4th
respondent issued Ext.P2 notice. Thereupon, the petitioner
submitted Exts.P3 and P4 representations before the 4th respondent
and 2nd respondent respectively. By Ext.P5, the 2nd respondent called
him for a hearing and according to the petitioner a hearing was
granted. When urged his contentions in the matter. According to the
counsel, final orders have not been passed on Ext.P5 so far and in
the meanwhile Ext.P6 notice has been issued requiring his
immediate eviction. It is in this circumstances the writ petition is
filed.
2. From the facts stated above it is seen that, according to
the petitioner, the appeal filed by him before the 2nd respondent
evidenced by Ext.P4 is pending and orders have not been passed so
far. It is at this stage that he is sought to be evicted from the
WPC.No. 18919/2010
:2 :
quarters.
3. In my view in the circumstances as noticed above, what is
required to be done is that the 2nd respondent should consider
Ext.P4 and pass final orders, deferring coercive action against the
petitioner.
Therefore, I dispose of this writ petition directing the 2nd
respondent to pass orders on Ext.P4. This shall be done as
expeditiously as possible and at any rate within 4 weeks from the
date of production of a copy of the judgment. It is directed that in
the meanwhile further proceedings pursuant to Exts.P2 and P6 will
be kept in abeyance .
Petitioner shall produce a copy of the judgment along with a
copy of this writ petition before the 2nd respondent for compliance.
