¶9

By an order dated 28^th May, 2010 passed in Appeal No. 91-94/2010, the Tribunal had directed the appellant to deposit an amount of Rs. 1,10,00,000/. The said order was challenged by the appellant before the Madras High Court. Thereafter the appellant filed a special leave petition before the Supreme Court. The counsel for the appellant states that after the order of the Hon’ble Supreme Court on 27^th August, 2010 they have filed an application for review at the Madras High Court which is pending. The same is pending for the last more than seven years and six months. No interim order of any nature has been passed. In the meanwhile, a fresh application dated 5^th January, 2013 has been filed for modification of the order dated 28^th May, 2010 of the Appellate Tribunal whereby the appellant were directed to deposit an amount of Rs. 1,10,00,000/-. This application is not maintainable because they have FPA-FE-91-94/CHN/2010 Page 1 of 2

¶10

already filed a review petition in the Madras High Court against the same interim order and they cannot be pursuing their case simultaneously in two separate forum. The appellant has not shown any intention to deposit the amount. The appeals are pending for more than seven years. There is no stay from the Madras High Court on their review petition filed subsequent to the Supreme Court’s order.

¶11

The contention of the appellant about the change of circumstances presently, may be argued before the Madras High Court where they are simultaneously pursuing the review petition.

¶12

We are therefore left with no option to dismiss the appeal for noncompliance of the order dated 28.05.2010.

¶13

All the appeals are accordingly dismissed.
