5. It emerges from the record that there was a Recovery Suit filed by the Petitioner which was decreed in his favour against which RFA No.759/2015 was passed in which the parties arrived at a Settlement. Part Settlement has been honoured by the Respondent, though the balance Recovery amount is still due to be paid. The Execution Petition has already been filed by the Petitioner to seek the recovery of the balance amount.
6. In view of the factual matrix and considering that the Execution Petition has already been filed, which is the appropriate remedy to seek implementation of the Order dated 17.04.2026, no ground for issuing a Notice for Contempt is made out.
7. The Petition is disposed of with liberty to the Petitioner to pursue the Execution proceedings.
