                 C.R.P.NO.1018 OF 2007 ()
                 -----------------------------------
           Dated this the 8th day of March, 2010

                           O R D E R

State has filed this revision against the order passed by

the learned Principal Sub Judge, Kottayam in the execution

proceedings in L.A.R.No.112 of 1985 directing for deposit of

balance sum of Rs. 3,36,320/- to satisfy the decree debt. The

learned Govt.Pleader submitted that as per the statement filed

by the State, the amount due was calculated as Rs.5,926/- and

in the statement of the decree holder, the sum was shown as

Rs.6,58,773/-. The court below without examining and

ascertaining what is the amount due, has passed a single line

order directing the State to deposit the balance amount of

Rs.3,36,320/-. No reason is stated nor any statement made as

to how the sum has been arrived is the submission of the

learned Govt. Pleader. The learned counsel appearing for the

respondent decree holder also conceded that the

non-speaking order impugned in the revision cannot be

sustained. Setting aside the impugned order, the court below

CRP.1018/07 2

is directed to pass orders afresh after having a proper enquiry

on the statements filed by both sides. Having regard to the

fact that the decree passed was in respect of an acquisition

which had taken place nearly three decades ago, I direct the

learned Single Judge to give priority to the proceedings and

make every endeavour to complete it within a span of six

months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this

order. Revision is accordingly disposed.
