without due process of law. After the defendants entered appearance

Conciliation Act contending that in the loan agreement dated

application (LA.1I) under Order XXXIX Rule 2-4 of C P C on the
ground that in spite of the ad-interim T i granted in favour of the
plaintiff, the defendants have seized the motor vehicle, and thereby
committed disobedience of the order of T I, and therefore contempt
proceedings shall be initiated. Since the vehicle was seized by the
defendants, the plaintiff filed LA.IV for restoration of the motor
vehivle. ‘The. application for restoration was rejected by the trial
Court. Feeling aggrieved by the order passed on LA.IV, the plaintiff
approached this Court in MFA No.3261/2009. Learned Single Judge

deliver the vehicle to the plaintiff within a week from the date of
order, in accordance with law. The vehicle was re-delivered to the
