BEFORE THE MADURAI BENCH OF MADRAS HIGH COURT DATED : 19.11.2018 CORAM :

THE HONOURABLE MRS.JUSTICE J.NISHA BANU C.R.P.(PD)(MD)No.2531 of 2018 M.Venkatesan ... Petitioner Vs.

T.Rengarajan ... Respondent PRAYER: Petition filed under Article 227 of the Constitution of India, seeking a direction to the learned V Additional District Judge, Madurai, to expedite the trial in O.S.No.155 of 2015 and conclude the trial, within a stipulated time limit. For Petitioner : Mr.V.Sasikumar *****

ORDER

This Civil Revision Petition has been filed seeking a direction to the learned V Additional District Judge, Madurai, to dispose of the suit in O.S.No.155 of 2015, within a stipulated time limit.

2. Learned Counsel for the petitioner would submit that the respondent has borrowed a sum of Rs.10,00,000/- from the petitioner, by mortgaging his property, but, he did not repay the same. Therefore, the petitioner has filed the suit in O.S.No.155 of 2015 for recovery of money. The grievance of the petitioner is that though the trial was commenced and the petitioner was cross examined by the other side, the suit was adjourned for one reason or the other, at the instance of the respondent. Therefore, the petitioner is before this Court with the aforesaid prayer.

3. Heard the learned Counsel for the petitioner and perused the materials available on record. Notice to the respondent is dispensed with, since the prayer itself is for a limited scope seeking early disposal of the suit proceedings.

4. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case and also taking into account the age of the suit, this Court, without going into the merits of the case, directs the learned V Additional District Judge, Madurai, to dispose of O.S.No.155 of 2015, within a period of four months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.

5. With the above direction, the Civil Revision Petition is disposed of. However, there shall be no order as to costs. Sd/ Assistant Registrar(CO) /True copy/ https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ Sub Assistant Registrar(CS-II)
