The Authorized Officer v. Annadurai Ravindran .C

O R D E R (Order of the Court was made by S.SRIMATHY,J.) This review application is filed against the order passed in W.P. (MD)No. 10070 of 2022, dated 19.05.2022,

¶2The writ petition was filed inter alia praying for writ of Certiorari to quash the order passed by Judicial Magistrate in Cr.M.P.No.280 of 2021 dated

22.11.2021. After hearing the rival submissions, this Court directed the writ petitioner to pay Rs.2,00,000/- (Rupees Two Lakhs only) on or before

30.05.2022. On such payment, the impugned Section 14 order was stayed. As far as the balance amount is concerned, this Court directed the respondent Bank to reschedule the EMI. It is submitted that the writ petitioner had paid Rs.2,00,000/- (Rupees Two Lakhs only) and had complied with the order.

¶3As far as Rs.8,77,674/- (Rupees Eight Lakh Seventy Seven Thousand Six Hundred and Seventy Four only) is concerned, the respondent Bank has filed this review application stating that rescheduling the balance amount cannot be entertained, since this Court has no jurisdiction to reschedule the EMI. If the parties are entering into a contract, any rescheduling should be based on the consensus of the parties and the terms of contract cannot be rewritten by Courts. Hence, the Bank has filed review application to review the order.

¶4In order to resolve the issue between the parties, this Court again attempted for compromise and directed the writ petitioner to pay a further sum of Rs.2,00,000/- (Rupees Two Lakhs only) on or before 03.11.2023. The writ petitioner has not paid the balance amount. Therefore, this Court is not considering the plea of the writ petitioner and consequently, the review application ought to be allowed. The writ petitioner can approach appropriate authority or forum for remedy, if so advised. The review applicant is at liberty to proceed as per law.

¶5Therefore, the review application is allowed. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed. (A.Q.,J.) (S.S.Y.,J.)
