Pollachi Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu-642 002 Respondents PRAYER : Petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India seeking issuance of a writ of mandamus directing the Hon’ble Debts Recovery Tribunal, Coimbatore to dispose of S.A.No.1123 of 2025 by fixing a stipulated time frame in accordance with law. For Petitioner: Mr.V.Balasubramani ORDER (Order of the Court was made by the Hon'ble Chief Justice) This petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India seeks a direction in the nature of writ of mandamus directing the Debts Recovery Tribunal, Coimbatore to take up and dispose of S.A.No.1123 of 2025, within a time frame fixed by this Court. 2. We have gone through the order sheets placed on record i.e., 14.11.2025, 02.01.2026 and 03.02.2026 and find that the case is progressing. The DRT website online case status produced by the petitioner shows that the case is posted on 24.07.2026. Any direction to expedite a specific case out of turn would disrupt the board of the Tribunal. The petitioner has failed to demonstrate any exceptional ______________ https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P.No.25142 of 2026 circumstance that distinguishes its case from other litigants waiting in queue before the Tribunal. The Tribunal should prioritize cases based on their seniority, nature of urgency and statutory mandate. It is empowered to regulate its procedure and accelerate hearings if a genuine case of urgency is made out. Issuing blanket direction for quick disposal would put undue pressure on the Tribunal and, consequently, the persons who approached the Tribunal earlier would be left at a disadvantaged position. 3. We are, therefore, not inclined to give such a direction to decide the case within a time frame. However, the petitioner would get liberty to file appropriate application before the Tribunal to expedite the hearing. With this liberty, the writ petition stands disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs.
