This Civil Revision Petition has been filed to direct the Principal Subordinate Judge, Tiruchirappalli, (Thuraiyur camp), to expedite the trial in O.S.No.258 of 2016, within a stipulated period as fixed by this Court.

2. The petitioner would aver among other things that the petitioner filed a suit in O.S.No.1057 of 2015 seeking specific performance against the respondent. The trial court issued summons to the respondent and the respondent also appeared before the Court and contested the case and therefter, the suit was renumbered as O.S.No.258 of 2016 and now the same is pending.

3. The respondent entered appearance before the court on 27.11.2015 and the suit was posted for filing written statement on 29.01.2016. The respondent did not file written statement for 8 months. On 02.09.2016, written statement was filed and issues were framed on 02.12.2016 and the suit was posted for trial. Thereafter, the suit was posted on 04.01.2017, 07.02.2017 and on 20.03.2017. But on that dates, the trial was not commenced.

4. The learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that though the petitioner has filed the suit in the year 2015, till date the trial has not been commenced and hence, he sought for early disposal of the above suit.

to the respondent herein.
