ORDER

On 19.08.2021, this Court has recorded the position that the petitioner has passed away on 29.10.2016. Learned counsel who had appeared on that date had sought some time to bring the legal heirs on record. However, learned counsel for R2 i.e. the Commissioner, Coonoor Municipality had stated that nothing survived in the matter as the legal heirs of the deceased writ petitioner have settled the arrears.
