When this matter is taken up for consideration today, it is the submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner has filed S.A. No.5/2022 before the Debts Recovery Tribunal, Ernakulam and the same is listed for consideration on 19-10-2022. It is pointed out that this court while admitting the above writ petition had passed the following interim order.
“Sri. Sajeev Kumar K.Gopal, the learned counsel takes notice for respondents.
I am prima facie satisfied that there is a mistake in the application filed before the Judicial Magistrate as is evident from Ext.P4.
Apart from the above, the learned counsel for the petitioner brings to my notice a further mistake in the name of the village shown in Ext.P7 sale notice.
Accordingly, there will be an interim stay of Ext.P7 as well as dispossession of the petitioner, for a period of three months from today.”
2. The learned counsel appearing for the respondent bank states that since the petitioner has already approached the Tribunal it is improper to seek the interference of this court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India and it is for the petitioner to pursue his remedies before the Tribunal.
3. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case and taking into consideration of the contents of the interim order dated 05-01-2022, this writ petition is disposed of permitting the petitioner to raise all contentions before the Tribunal in S.A. No.5/2022. The interim order dated 05-01-2022 staying sale of the secured asset and physical dispossession of the petitioner shall continue till 19-10-
2022, on which date S.A. No.5/2022 is listed for consideration before the Tribunal.
