| Bot Summary: | No.1553 OF 2020(T) 2 ALEXANDER THOMAS, J. W.P(C) No.1553 of 2020 Dated this the 21st day of January, 2020 JUDGMENT Against Ext.P1 and Ext.P1(a) orders, the petitioner has filed Ext.P2 and Ext.P2(a) appeals and Ext.P3 and Ext.P3(a) stay petitions. The petitioner's grievance is that during the pendency of the stay petition, coercive recovery proceedings have been initiated by the assessing authority for recovery of the disputed amounts. Heard Sri.K.S.Hariharan Nair, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner and Sri.Jose Joseph, learned standing counsel appearing for the respondents. After hearing both sides and after taking note of the facts and circumstances of the case, it is ordered in the interest of justice that the 2nd respondent shall take up the matters in Ext.P3 and Ext.P3(a) stay applications filed in Ext.P2 and Ext.P2(a) appeals and after affording reasonable opportunity of being heard to the petitioner WP(C). No.1553 OF 2020(T) 3 through their authorised representative/counsel, if any, shall pass orders on those applications without much delay, preferably within a period of two months from the date of production of a certified copy of this judgment. Until orders are thus passed on the abovesaid stay applications, further coercive steps for enforcement of the impugned Exts.P1 P1(a) orders will be kept in abeyance. With these observations and directions, the above Writ Petition stands finally disposed of. |
