Dated this 16th day of June, 2010
JUDGMENT
Petitioner, a senior citizen aged about 70 years is one of the
respondents in A.S.No.142 of 2008 of the court of learned Sub
Judge, Kottarakkara. The suit by the respondent herein,
O.S.No.175 of 2007 for decree of prohibitory injunction was
dismissed in favour of the petitioner and others. Respondent
preferred the appeal challenging judgment and decree. Grievance
of petitioner is that the appeal is not being disposed of. Learned
counsel states that as per O.M.No.R.13/99/SS dated 02-06-1999
issued by this court cases involving senior citizens are to be given
top priority in the matter of disposal.
2. Even the averments in the petition would indicate that
there are sessions cases and other matters pending in the court of
learned Sub Judge. Without understanding the volume of work and
the urgency of other matters pending for disposal I do not consider
it proper to direct disposal of the appeal with any time limit. But
petitioner can urge his grievance before learned Sub Judge and
request for an early disposal of the appeal. If any such request is
made learned Sub Judge will consider that request on the facts and

circumstances of the case and in the light of O.M referred and pass
appropriate orders.
The writ petition is disposed of accordingly.
