THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B.PRAKASH RAO AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITION No.10519 of 2009 ORDER: (Per BPR, J) Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader for Commercial Taxes. With the consent of the learned counsel for the parties, the writ petition itself is taken up for hearing and disposal. Admittedly, the petitioner is having an alternative remedy of filing an appeal before the Sales Tax Appellate Tribunal. In view of the same, we are not inclined to entertain the writ petition at this stage. The writ petition is accordingly, dismissed with liberty to the petitioner to file statutory appeal. However, during the pendency of the appeal to be filed by the petitioner, there shall be interim stay subject to the condition of the petitioner depositing half of the demanded amount, within a period of six weeks. No costs. ____________________ B.PRAKASH RAO, J 28th MAY, 2009. ____________________ SANJAY KUMAR, J kvni/kh
