BY THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 18/09/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S.SIRI JAGAN, J ================== W.P(C)No.27280 of 2008 ================== Dated this the 18th day of September, 2008. J U D G M E N T The petitioner approached this Court seeking a direction to the respondent to consider and dispose of Ext.P1, which is a letter requesting the Municipality to inform the petitioner as to whether he is liable to take a licence in respect of the business he is conducting in his building. The petitioner now submits that the respondent may be directed to consider and dispose of the application for licence, which the petitioner intends to file. I have no reason to apprehend that if the petitioner files an application for licence in accordance with Kerala Municipalities Act, the respondent would not consider the same in accordance with law. With the above observation this writ petition is disposed of. S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE rhs
