Kumarapandi K v. Madurai Corporation

ORDER Heard both sides.

¶2The petitioner challenges the order dated 01.06.2015 passed by the second respondent effecting mutation in favour of the third respondent.

¶3I am not inclined to entertain this petition for the reason that challenge has been mounted belatedly. The petitioner is given liberty to file a formal petition before the first respondent. The learned counsel for the petitioner states that such a petition will be filed by the first respondent within a period of three weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. If such a petition is filed, the same will be numbered and final order shall be passed by the first respondent within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. The first respondent will hear the petitioner as well as the 3rd respondent before passing the final order. I make it clear that I have not gone into the merits of the matter.

¶4The Writ Petition is disposed of accordingly. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petitions are closed.
