The High Court recently made a decision on a request from the Methodist Colony Welfare Association. They wanted to move their case to another court, but the court said no. Let's break down what happened.
The people asking for the transfer were the Methodist Colony Welfare Association and Mr. Maj Retd G Shiva Kiran. They wanted to move the case because they thought the judge wasn't doing anything about it. On the other side, the people responding were an Adhoc committee represented by Mr. K S Prasad and Mrs. Jhansi Samuel.
The group asking for the transfer wanted to move S.O.P. No.7 of 2024. They thought the Additional Chief Judge wasn't acting on their request, I.A.No.2547 of 2024, even though the High Court had told him to do so back in July 2024.
Justice P. Sam Koshy looked at the case. He agreed that saying no to the transfer request (T.R.O.P No.105 of 2024) was the right call. The court didn't see any problem with the earlier decision.
Even though the transfer was denied, Justice Koshy told the trial court to work quickly. The court must look at I.A.No.2547 of 2024 and other related requests within 30 days from the next hearing date, which is on October 23, 2025.
The court decided not to move the case to another court but made sure that the trial court would handle the pending requests quickly. This decision shows how courts try to balance procedural requests with making sure justice is served efficiently.
