Reported in: ILR1986KAR3943

Rama Jois, J.1. This case is an example to show as to how by inept handling of its case by a public authority it deprives itself of the relief to which it is entitled to in law for a long time, in this case, for over a decade.2. The facts of the case in brief are as follow: A site measuring 180 feet x 150 feet situate near Seenappa Shetty Circle, Nehru Road, within the vicinity of Shimoga City Municipal Council had been leased out in favour of the appellant more than quarter century before. The lease was initially for a period of five years and it was being extended from time to time in favour of the appellant without putting the same to auction after the expiry of each period of lease.

At that time the elected Council was not in existence and consequently an administrator had been appointed for exercis...
