Rama Rao, J.1. In this batch of writ petitions the petitioners assail the validity of circular dated 21-11-1983 issued by the Government of Andhra Pradesh and consequential notification dated 13-12-1983 by the 2nd respondent seeking to levy tax on rig mounted vehicles treating them as goods vehicles under Sections 2(7) and 2(8) of the Motor Vehicles Act and requiring registration as transport vehicles.2.

P. Rama Rao, J.1. This petition is for issue of a writ of mandamus directing the respondents to refund the amount of Rs. 3,80,641 being the illegal collection of sales tax from the petitioner for the year 1968-69 under the A.P. General Sales Tax Act. 2. The averments in the affidavit in support of the writ petition may be stated : The Commercial Tax Officer, Mahaboobnagar, passes an assessment order under the A.P. General Sales Tax Act on 2nd August, 1973, on the turnover of groundnut seed, oil, etc. As the appeal to the first appellate authority was rejected, the petitioner preferred an appeal to the Sales Tax Appellate Tribunal. The Appellate Tribunal allowed the appeal being T.A. No. 206/77 setting aside the assessment on the ground that the assessment was barred by time. The Tribunal followed the judgment of this Court in T.R.C. No. 23 of 1978 (Nav Swadeshi Oil Mills v. State of A.P. [1983] 54 STC 149) pertaining to the same petitioner for a different assessment year. As a result o...

ORDER1. This case demonstrates to the tilt of several shortcomings as to how, despite conclusive facts, when persons unfamiliar with legal process were called upon to adjudicate the claims entwined with legal issues would falter in the performance thereof and how due to notorious red-tapism the benign constitutional distributive justice would be defeated due to procrastination calling utmost expeditious attention to remedy the acute evils at the highest State level.2. Before pointing them out and elaboration thereof, it is necessary to state the material facts in extentso. The petitioner, Nadimpally Bhuvanewara Rao son of Tirupathirao, resident of Namnoor in Luxsettipet Taluk of Adilabad District, obtained a social status certificate based on the recommendation made by the Sarpanch and the Patwari of that village that he belongs of 'Koppula Velma' community which is recognised by the State Government as Backward Class 'D' Group.

K. Bhaskaran, C.J.1. This reference is under S. 17 of the Divorce Act. The petitioner filed a petition, O. P. No. 36 of 1984 on the file of the Court below, for dissolution of the marriage between herself and the respondent which are allowed by the learned District Judge by the order dated 20-11-1984. The ground urged is that the respondent, while the marriage between himself and the petitioner was subsisting and two children had been born to them, married another woman deserting her and living separately. Though notice was issued to the respondent he did not either enter appearance or contest the matter.2. We are not, however, satisfied with the manner in which the learned District Judge disposed of the matter. The order reads as follows :'The signature on postal acknowledgment is certified to be that of the respondent. Respondent called absent and set ex parte P. W. 1 examined. Petition allowed.'This certainly is not the manner in which a matrimonial matter which has far reaching con...
