Respondents PRAYER : Petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India seeking issuance of a writ of mandamus directing the learned Debt Recovery Tribunal, Coimbatore to dispose the Securitisation Application on an expeditious basis in S.A.No.942 of 2024 within the time frame fixed by this Hon’ble Court. For Petitioner: Mr.L.Thiyagaiya ORDER (Order of the Court was made by the Hon'ble Chief Justice) This writ petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India seeks a direction to the Debts Recovery Tribunal, Coimbatore to dispose of S.A.No.942 of 2024 as expeditiously as possible. ______________ https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P.No.28962 of 2026 2. We have gone through the order sheets placed on record and find that the case (S.A.No.942 of 2024) is progressing. During the course of hearing learned counsel for the petitioner submits that SA is posted on 29.07.2026. 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 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 be at liberty to file appropriate application before the Tribunal to expedite the hearing. ______________ https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P.No.28962 of 2026 4. With the liberty aforesaid, the writ petition stands dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs.
