The said writ petition has been ﬁled by the appellant herein questioning the suspension order suspending the licence of Boiguda Kaman toddy shop bearing No.62, and the said writ petition has been disposed of, directing the 1st respondent herein to send the second sample bottle of toddy to an independent laboratory i.e. Institute of Preventive Medicine, Public Health Food Laboratory, Food Administration, Hyderabad alias State Food Laboratory, Nacharam, Hyderabad for testing forthwith, after obtaining necessary permission from the Court of Judicial First Class Magistrate, Hyderabad. Aggrieved by the same, the present writ appeal has been filed. This Court while admitting the present writ appeal granted interim suspension of the operation of the impugned order. As the period of licence of the appellant toddy shop is already over and in view of ban imposed prohibiting to grant licences to toddy shops in Hyderabad Municipal Corporation limits, and the licences, if any, granted earlier, are not subsisting, therefore, We are of the opinion that the cause in the present writ appeal does not survive and the subject matter of the writ appeal has become infructuous. The Writ Appeal is, accordingly, dismissed as infructuous. No order as to costs. __________________ V.ESWARAIAH,J ______________________ G.V.SEETHAPATHY,J Dated: 10.09.2008 Dsr ........REGISTRAR To 1 The Excise Superintendent,(Excise and Prohibition), Twin Cities of Hyderabad, Narayanaguda,Hyderabad Dist. 2 The Inspector of Proh.& Excise, Golkonda Circle, Golkonda, Hyderabad. 3 The Dy.Commissioner of Proh. & Excise, Hyderabad Division, Nampally, Hyderabad. 4.2 CD copies
