JUDGMENT
Whether the attachment of the property in the suit is subsequent to the mortgage in favour of the bank is the short question. The right of the bank will prevail if the attachment is subsequent to the mortgage as held in Madan S. Vs. Sub Registrar, Kollam [2014 (1) KLT 406]. The matter is engaging the attention of the first respondent in Ext.P5 representation.
2.
I direct the first respondent to consider Ext.P5 representation with notice to the petitioner and the third respondent. The needful shall be done within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The Writ Petition is disposed of.
