No.1872 of 2010 (H) --------------------------------- Dated, this the 20th day of January, 2010 J U D G M E N T The petitioner submits that in respect of a tailoring shop owned by her, the respondent Panchayat had granted licence. According to the petitioner, she could not remit the licence fee for the period 2008-09 and 2009-10, and that therefore, the Municipality issued Ext.P3 notice requiring remittance of the fee. It is stated that thereupon she approached the Municipality for remitting the fee, but, however, the Municipality refused to accept the same. It is stated that even Exts.P4 & P5 representations made by the petitioner in this behalf have not evoked any response. In the light of the above grievance of the petitioner, I direct the respondent Municipality to consider and pass orders on Exts.P4 & P5 representations filed by the petitioner. This shall be done as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within two weeks of production of a copy of this judgment, along with a copy of this writ petition. This writ petition is disposed of as above. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) jg
