P.W.1 on 14.11.2022, but as on date, he was not cross-examined. Therefore, he wanted to direct the trial court to dispose the case as early as possible.

2. Since the relief claimed by the Revision Petitioner only seeking a direction for a speedy disposal, the notice to the respondent is dispensed with.

3. E-court perused. On perusal of e-court status, from the date of 14.11.2022, the trial judge adjourned the matter for cross-examination of P.W.1 and for more than two years, there is no progress in the trial, as such it would show that the trial court is not inclined to proceed with the matter as per manner known to law. Therefore, this Court is inclined to direct the trial judge to commence the trial and dispose the case as expeditiously as possible within a period of three months without giving unnecessary adjournment from the date of receipt of copy of this order. Accordingly, this Civil Revision Petition is disposed of. No costs. 24.11.2023 Index : Yes/No Speaking Order : Yes/No rpp To The Sub-Judge, Kallakurichi.
