Revenue Recovery Act for recovery of Earnest Money Deposit amount claimed by the 4th Respondent pursuant to Bank Guarantee No. 33/89 dated 6/11/89, is arbitrary and without jurisdiction and consequentially direct the respondents to forbear from recovering any amount from the petitioner pursuant to the demand notice of the 1st Respondent bearing No. B/1047/2000 dt. 24/3/2000” When this case was called on 9-6-2008 there was no representation for the petitioner. Hence, the case was passed over. Today also there has been no representation for the petitioner both in the forenoon and again in the afternoon. It is, therefore, reasonable to presume that the petitioner is not interested in prosecuting the case. Hence, the Writ Petition is liable to be dismissed. At the hearing, the learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue submitted that the petitioner paid entire money demanded under the impugned notice and, thereby the Writ Petition has become infructuous. In view of the above, the Writ Petition is dismissed as infructuous. -------------------------------------- -- C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J Date: 10-07-2008 MNR
