W.P.(C) No.5080 of 2007 .................................................................... Dated this the 6th day of November, 2007. JUDGMENT Prayer sought for is to quash the proceedings initiated for proclamation and sale of the immovable property covered by attachment order dated 18.2.2002. Standing Counsel for respondents submits that coercive action was necessitated on account of the default in paying the dues under the Income Tax Act. It is also submitted that subsequently the entire amount has been paid and the attachment has been lifted. In view of this, nothing further survives in this W.P. Counsel submits that they are still aggrieved because excess amount has been recovered. If that be so, the petitioner is always at liberty to pursue the claim independently. Writ Petition is disposed of as above. ANTONY DOMINIC Judge pms
