W.P.(C) No. 2024 of 2009-N
----------------------------------------------
Dated, this the 26th day of February, 2009
J U D G M E N T
Petitioner calls in question Ext.P5. According
to the petitioner, the application of the petitioner for
compounding for the year 2008-2009 stands rejected
after issuing Ext.P2 show cause notice to which petitioner
submitted Ext.P3 reply.
2. I heard learned counsel for the petitioner
and learned Government Pleader.
3. Learned Government Pleader contends that
the matter is appealable under Section 55. I feel that
the petitioner could be relegated to pursue the appellate
remedy.
4. The writ petition is disposed of. If the
petitioner prefers appeal within a period of one week from
date of receipt of a copy of this judgment under
WPC No. 2024/2009 -2-
Section 55, the appellate authority will consider and take
a decision in the matter within one month from the date
of filing of the appeal. The appellate authority shall
consider the matter without reference to the period of
limitation. I leave it open all the contentions of the
petitioner.
