I heard learned Government Pleader also. It is pointed out that the Government had already gave instalment facility to the petitioner. Petitioner had earlier filed a writ petition and there was a stay on condition of the petitioner paying one third of the amount and that amount was also not remitted. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner was unable to pay the amount and he is now able to pay the amount. In the above circumstances, the writ petition is disposed of permitting the petitioner to pay entire amount due under Ext.P1 with additional tax in three equal monthly instalments, the first instalment shall be payable on or before 10.7.2008 and further instalments on or before the 10th of the succeeding months. If any one instalment is not paid, the petitioner will lose the benefit of this judgment and the respondents are free WPC. 18269/2008. 2 to proceed against the petitioner. If the petitioner continues to pay the instalments, recovery proceedings will be kept in abeyance. (K.M. JOSEPH, JUDGE) sb
