Hanumayya v. the Deputy Commissioner and Ors.
Case brief
What is this about?
Externment matter, High Court of Karnataka: externment order passed against petitioner for six months; period already expired when petition came up; held that the petition does not survive for consideration. Source text is largely illegible (encoding/font corruption), so coram, case number, filing/decision dates, parties, advocates, statutes and precedents are unavailable. Relevant only where expiry of an externment period is the live question; verify against a clean copy before citing.
What did the court decide?
The petition does not survive for consideration, the externment period of six months having already expired. ¶32
