WP(C) NO. 41062 OF 2022



Advocates:
For the Appellants/Petitioners: SRI.R.SREEHARI, SHRI.HAMZA A.V.
For the Respondents: GOVERNMENT PLEADER (TAXES)

The court found that without intent to act against the petitioner, no recovery proceedings under the Kerala Revenue Recovery Act could proceed against their properties.

Headnote:This writ petition seeks to restrain actions against movable and immovable properties under the Kerala Revenue Recovery Act, 1968. Proceedings were initiated against certain respondents, but no intention to proceed against the petitioner was reported. The court closed the petition on this basis. The main issue was whether the petitioner’s properties could be targeted despite pending recovery actions against others. The court reasoned that proceedings against the petitioner would not be justified if there was no intent to act against them. Consequently, the court ordered the writ petition's closure, confirming no actions would proceed against the petitioner’s properties.
