THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU W.P.No.27189 of 2003 Dated:11.07.2007 Between Skadam Saheb …..Petitioner and 1.The Assistant Divisional Engineer, APSPDCL, Piduguralla, Guntur District and others. …Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU W.P.No.27189 of 2003 ORDER When an impugned final demand was issued on 23.10.2003 against connection bearing SC No.7215, the petitioner filed the present writ petition raising various grounds. Learned counsel for the respondents submits that against the impugned order, an appeal is available before the competent authority. Instead of availing the same, the petitioner has straight away filed this writ petition. Therefore, the same is not maintainable. While admitting the writ petition on 31.12.2003 in WPMP No.34447 of 2003 interim stay on condition of depositing an amount of Rs.25,000/- within a period of three weeks from that date and also depositing another amount of Rs.25,000/- within a period of six weeks from that date, was granted. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the said order was not complied with by the petitioner and that having regard to various objections raised by the petitioner, the writ petition may be taken up for final hearing. The submission made by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the interim order passed by this Court is not complied with does not inspire confidence of the Court for by- passing the statutory appeal available against the impugned order. Therefore, writ petition is dismissed leaving liberty to the petitioner to approach the competent appellate authority and work out his remedies as available under the law. _________ 11-07-2007 rkk
