The Court directed the Family Court to dispose of pending applications expeditiously, without imposing a strict timeframe, underscoring judicial efficiency.

Devan Ramachandran, J.

Sri.V.V.Nandagopal Nambiar – appearing for the petitioner, submitted that the Original Petition before the learned Family Court - in which Exts.P3 and P4 applications filed by his client are pending – is listed on 21.02.2026 for consideration.

2. We notice that the sole prayer in this Original Petition is that the learned Family Court, Aluva, be directed to take up Exts.P3 and P4 applications and dispose it of within a time frame to be fixed by this Court.

3. We do not propose to fix a time frame because, when the applications are, admittedly, listed on 21.02.2026, we see no reason why the learned Court will not take it up and decide it as per law.

4. In the afore circumstances, we close this Original Petition; however, directing the learned Family Court to dispose of Exts.P3 and P4 applications at the earliest, but not later than two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
