THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 27/03/2007, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: Thottathil B. Radhakrishnan, J. =================================== W.P.(C)No.9778 of 2007 =================================== Dated this the 27th day of March, 2007. JUDGMENT Petitioner's complaint is that respondents 4 and 5 are unauthorisedly acting in so far as the abkari laws are concerned. According to the petitioner, the fourth respondent had illegally transferred his abkari licence for toddy shop in favour of the fifth respondent. The attempt of the petitioner is only to stall respondents 4 and 5 from participating in the ensuing abkari auction. In my considered view, it is too late in the day to make any such request. Writ petition fails. It is hence dismissed. Thottathil B.Radhakrishnan, Judge. sl.
