Aggrieved by the alleged deficiency in service of the 1^st respondent-Builder, the petitioners filed C.C. Nos.28/12 and 44/12 before the State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, Thiruvananthapuram. The State Commission allowed the claim and directed the respondents to refund the amount, as per Ext.P1 judgment dated 31.01.2015. The petitioners initiated execution proceedings by filing E.P. Nos.25/15 and 26/15. Warrants have been issued against the respondents. Thereafter, proceedings have not moved further. According to the petitioners, the respondents are moving around in spite of the warrants issued. The petitioners, therefore, seek speedy disposal of the execution proceedings by writs of this Court.
