                 W.P.(C) NO. 8970 OF 2009 (M)
                =====================

            Dated this the 20th day of March, 2009

                         J U D G M E N T

Petitioner submits that in respect of her property having an

extent of 25 cents situated in Sy.No.260/12A,/12C,/13,/18A

and /20 of Thalavady Village, tax is not accepted for the reason

that survey pursuant to a complaint made by the 5th respondent

has not been finalised so far. It is stated that although on

several occasions, the matter was heard, the 2nd respondent has

not passed final orders resulting in the refusal to accept the tax.

2. In view of the aforesaid complaint, the appropriate

order to be passed is to direct the 2nd respondent to finalise the

survey proceedings initiated at the instance of the 5th

respondent. Once survey is finalised, the petitioner can

thereafter make payment of the tax also.

3. In view of the above, the writ petition is disposed of

directing the 2nd respondent to finalise the survey of the

petitioner’s property initiated at the instance of the 5th

respondent with notice to the petitioner and the 5th respondent.

WPC 8970/09
:2 :

This shall be done, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate

within 3 months of production of a copy of this judgment along

with a copy of this writ petition.
