ORDER

¶16

The present contempt petition has been filed alleging disobedience of the order of this Court dated 24.02.2023 in Arb.O.P.(Com.Div.) No.25 of 2022 and Arb.Appln.No.305 of 2022.

¶17

Mr.A.Ramesh Manikandan, learned counsel for the petitioner would refer to the order of this Court and also the Minutes of the Meeting recorded by the learned sole Arbitrator with regard to the alleged high handed act of the respondent in entering into forcible possession of the flats and taking over illegal possession.

¶18

It is also brought to the notice of this Court that the police complaint lodged by the petitioner was closed since the police authorities felt that it was a civil dispute. However, learned counsel would bring to the notice of this Court that the Bar Council has initiated proceedings against the Advocate and the same is pending.

¶19

Mr.Vedavalli Kumar, learned counsel for the respondent, referring to the counter affidavit, contends that there has been no disobedience of the order of this Court dated 24.02.2023.

Cont.Petn.No.3282 of 2024

¶22

I have carefully considered the submissions advanced by the learned counsel on either side and I have also gone through the order dated 24.02.2023.

¶23

Excepting for appointing a sole Arbitrator viz., Hon'ble Mr.Justice N.Kirubakaran (Rtd.,) and giving liberty to the parties to file interlocutory applications under Section 17 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, I do not find any interim order, protecting the possession of the subject flats.

¶24

Therefore, I am unable to accept the submissions of the learned counsel for the petitioner that there is wilful disobedience of the order of the court dated 24.02.2023.

¶25

It is always open to the petitioner to move the police authorities or the competent criminal court to pursue his complaint, which was closed as one being civil in nature, apart from the other proceedings, already pending before the Bar Council.

¶26

With the above observation, the contempt petition is dismissed.
