JUDGMENT

The petitioner, who is aggrieved by the steps initiated by the respondent Bank for realisation of the loan amount from him, has approached this Court, seeking a direction to the respondent to keep in abeyance the said steps and to permit the petitioner to pay of the entire outstanding amounts in installments.

2. When the matter came up for admission, it was noticed that, the petitioner had already approached this Court on an earlier occasion and by Ext.P5 judgment, this Court had directed the petitioner to pay the entire amounts due to the respondent in twelve equal monthly installments starting from 28.02.2015, with respect to the Cash Credit account. There was also a direction to pay the overdue amount in respect of the housing loan in four equal monthly installments starting from the same date. It would appear that the petitioner did not comply with the said directions and approached this Court again through an I.A., filed in the said writ petition. By Ext.P6 order, this Court had extended the time to pay the defaulted overdue amounts till 30.09.2014. It is now understood that the petitioner has not complied with the said order either.

W.P.(C) No.3822 of 2015 (C)

3. Under those circumstances, I do not think the present writ petition praying for substantially the same relief as was prayed for in the earlier writ petitions can be maintained at the instance of the petitioner, I, therefore, dismiss this writ petition as not maintainable.

4. The learned counsel for the petitioner would submits that the sale proceedings are underway to take possession of the property on 09.02.2015.

5. Taking note of the said submission, I direct that, if the petitioner pays an amount of Rs.3,00,000/- (Rupees Three lakhs only) to the respondent Bank on or before 07.02.2015, then, the proceedings for taking possession of the property shall be kept in abeyance for a period of two weeks from today. It is further made clear that, it is up to the petitioner to consider pursuing further steps against Ext.P5 judgment and P6 order of this Court, if he wants to keep the issue alive. The stay for two weeks, that is granted in this judgment, shall expire on the completion of the aforesaid period of two weeks.
