Jeyarajan, v. P.C.Rajendran

ORDER This Civil Revision Petition has been filed for a direction to the learned Judge, who is sitting in vacation at Theni (Criminal Side) to number and hear the First Appeal and connected applications.

¶2Since no adverse order is going to be passed against the respondents, notice to them is dispensed with.

¶3The difficulty that is expressed by the petitioner is that a First Appeal is preferred against the judgment and decree of the learned Sub Judge, Periyakulam dated 29.03.2023 passed in O.S.No.16 of 2015. Now, the very same learned Judge is sitting in the vacation Court at Theni and the first appeal is being posted before the very same learned Judge. Hence, the learned Judge is not inclined to take up the case. However, it is brought to notice of this Court that in the same vacation Court, another learned Judge is sitting, who is taking up criminal work. The case in first appeal may be posted before the said learned Judge.

¶4Considering the difficulty expressed by the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner, the learned Judge, who is taking up the criminal work at Theni, is directed to take up the First Appeal mentioned above, process the same in accordance with law and hear it on 17.05.2023.

¶5With the above direction, this Civil Revision Petition is allowed. There shall be no order as to costs. Consequently, connected Miscellaneous Petition is closed.
