J U D G M E N T
The petitioners have approached this court being aggrieved by the fact that while S.A. No.8/2025 along with application for stay is pending consideration before the Debts Recovery Tribunal-I, Ernakulam, the Authorised Officer of the respondent bank is proposing to take physical possession of the secured asset through an Advocate Commissioner appointed by the Chief Judicial Magistrate Court, Ernakulam.
2. The learned counsel for the respondent bank seeks time to get instructions. However, considering the limited nature of relief that I propose to grant, I am of the opinion that the matter need not be adjourned to enable the learned counsel for the respondent bank to obtain instructions.
3. This original petition petition will stand disposed of directing that the steps for taking physical possession of the secured asset shall be adjourned by a period of two weeks from today (04-04-2025) to enable the petitioners to seek appropriate order on I.A. No.42/2025 in SA No.8/2025 pending before the Debts Recovery Tribunal-I, Ernakulam. Thereafter the parties shall be governed by the terms of any order that may be passed by the Debts Recovery Tribunal. Original petition is ordered accordingly. Sd/- GOPINATH P. JUDGE AMG
