====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE AJAY KUMAR TRIPATHI and HONOURABLE JUSTICE SMT. NILU AGRAWAL ORAL ORDER (Per: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE AJAY KUMAR TRIPATHI) 04-01-2018 Delay of 57 days in preferring this appeal is condoned. I. A. No. 9707 of 2016 is allowed.
The matter is thereafter taken up on merits.
Heard learned counsel for the appellant. Perused the order, dated 09.09.2016. The Learned Single Judge has rightly dismissed the writ application, refusing to interfere with the order of the licensing authority as well as the appellate authority, the Collector, because he had nothing to offer by way of defence at any of the stage. In fact all steps have been taken to evade and avoid offering explanation for the allegations and charges for
Patna High Court LPA No.2296 of 2016(3) dt.04-01-2018 2/2 which notices had been issued to him.
Appellant had been given adequate opportunity at both the stages and at both the stages he has failed to make out a case for any defence against charges so leveled.
In view of the same, the appeal lacks merit. No interference is warranted with the order of the Learned Single Judge. Appeal is dismissed.
