J U D G M E N T
The petitioners who had availed of a housing loan and Suvidha loan from the respondent bank, have approached this Court challenging the action taken by the respondent bank for recovery of the defaulted amounts. When the matter came up for admission, it was noticed that the petitioners had earlier approached this Court seeking substantially the same reliefs as sought in the present writ petition, and this Court by Ext.P3 judgment had disposed the writ petition granting the petitioners instalments for the purposes of regularising the loan account maintained with the respondent bank. It is brought to my notice that the petitioners have not complied with the terms in Ext.P3 judgment. In such a scenario, I do not think it is open to the petitioners to approach this Court again through a fresh writ petition. Resultantly, the present writ petition cannot be maintained at the instance of the petitioners. The writ petition fails and is accordingly dismissed.
