ORDER

Order No.

01.12.2022 1.

1.

This matter is taken up through hybrid mode.

2.

The Petitioner in this writ petition prays for a direction to release his vehicle bearing Registration No.OD-05-AQ-9129 (Truck) after receiving the sale amount of Rs.13,55,000/-. 3.

Mr. Behera, learned counsel submits that the Petitioner is the registered owner of the vehicle bearing Registration No. OD-05-AQ-9129 (Truck). Due to non-payment of the loan amount, the aforesaid vehicle was seized by the Opposite Party No.2-Financer and it has already been sold, but the ownership has not yet been transferred. Hence, this writ petition has been filed for a direction to release the aforesaid vehicle after accepting the sale value.

4.

Since the vehicle has already been sold in a public auction, the writ petition in absence of the purchaser is not maintainable.

// 2 // 5.

This writ petition is, therefore, disposed with an observation that the Petitioner, if so advised, may approach the Opposite Party No.2-Financer for redressal of his grievances. Urgent certified copy of this order be granted on proper application.
