IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD THURSDAY, THE THIRTY FIRST DAY OF OCTOBER TWO THOUSAND AND THIRTEEN PRESENT THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR CIVIL MISCELLANEOUS SECOND APPEAL No.372 of 2004 BETWEEN Syed Ismail Hassan. …APPELLANT AND The Municipal Corporation, Rep. by its Commissioner, Kurnool. …RESPONDENT Counsel for the Appellant: MR. M. MEHDI HUSSAIN Counsel for the Respondent: MR. A. SREEDHAR The Court made the following: - JUDGMENT: This miscellaneous appeal is directed against the judgment dated 15.07.2002 passed in M.C.A.No.5 of 2001 by the Principal District Judge, Kurnool, dismissing the appeal wherein the endorsement of the Municipal Corporation, Kurnool dated 05.11.1996 revising the tax was questioned. 2. There is no appearance on behalf of the appellant. Even otherwise, the issue of the tax enhancement of 1996 today has become unnecessary on account afflux of time, as several decades have passed and in view of the lapse of several decades, the tax must have been revised several times over and above the impugned revision. Hence, no purpose would be served adjudicating the issue and the appellant also appears not interested in pursuing the appeal. The civil miscellaneous second appeal is accordingly dismissed. As a sequel, the miscellaneous applications, if any, shall stand dismissed as infructuous. There shall be no order as to costs. ____________________ VILAS V. AFZULPURKR, J October 31, 2013 DSK
