Consequent to non-appearance of the accused,<\/p>\n<p>M.C.No:121\/08 was registered against the petitioners and fine to<\/p>\n<p>the tune of Rs.50,000\/- each was imposed against them.<\/p>\n<p>According to the petitioners they were not having any knowledge<\/p>\n<p>about the proceedings and about imposition of fine. Only when<\/p>\n<p>recovery notices, as evidenced from Ext.P1 &amp; Ext.P2, were<\/p>\n<p>received, they came to know about the proceedings. It is stated<\/p>\n<p>that the petitioners have already filed applications for getting<\/p>\n<p>certified copy of the order in M.C.121\/08, with a view to file<\/p>\n<p>statutory appeal against that order.               Under the above<\/p>\n<p>circumstances limited prayer of the petitioners is for a direction<\/p>\n<p>to keep in abeyance recovery steps, for a reasonable period, in<\/p>\n<p>order to facilitate the petitioners to file appeal against the order<\/p>\n<p>and to seek appropriate remedy from the appellate court.<\/p>\n<p>      2.
