==================== O.P. (F.C.) No. 374 of 2013 ==================== Dated this the 31st day of January, 2013 JUDGMENT On considering this O.P. where the petitioner seeks a direction to the Family Court, Nedumangad for an early disposal of O.P. No. 189/2009 on the files of that Court, we directed the Registrar (Judicial) to get in touch with the Family Court, Nedumangad and file a report. Accordingly, the following report dated 30-1-2013 is submitted by the Registrar. "As directed, contacted the Family Court, Nedumangad. The learned Judge informed that O.P.No. 189/2009 is connected with O.P.No. 1817/2009 and O.P.No. 174/2009. In O.P.No. 189/2009 Advocate Commissioner has been appointed for recording evidence and the case stands posted to 31-03-2013 for Commissioner's Report. The other two O.Ps are also posted to 31-03-2013. According to the learned Judge, the cases are not proceeded with mainly for the reason that the disposal of O.P. (F.C.) No. 277/2010 by the Hon'ble High Court has not been recorded. A copy of the judgment in O.P. (F.C.) No. 277/2010 was therefore O.P. (F.C.) No. 374 of 2013 -2- sent to the learned Judge by fax. After perusing the said judgment, the learned Judge contacted me again and informed that she will advance the cases to an earlier date after giving notice to the parties and that she will make earnest efforts to dispose of the three O.Ps within three months".
2. In view of the above report, we issue a direction to the Family Court, Nedumangad to dispose of O.P.No. 189 of 2009 and also the connected O.P. No. 17/2009, 174/2009 in accordance with law at the earliest, at any rate within three months of receiving copy of this judgment. Sd/- PIUS C. KURIAKOSE JUDGE Sd/- BABU MATHEW P. JOSEPH JUDGE kvr/
