                                      JUDGMENT

Petitioner suffered an assessment under the Building Tax Act.

Appeal carried was dismissed as time barred. Then petitioner filed Ext.P5

application for rectification, Ext.P6 application for refund under Section 20

of the Building Tax Act, and Ext.P7 application for measurement under

Section 23 of the Act. Faced with no response, petitioner has filed this writ

petition.

2. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned

Government Pleader.

The writ petition is disposed of directing the first respondent to

consider and take a decision on Ext.P5 in accordance with law within six

weeks from the date of production of a copy of this judgment. I make it

clear that I have not expressed any view either regarding the merits or

maintainability of Ext.P5.

(K.M. JOSEPH, JUDGE)
