Appeal filed under Clause 15 of the Letters Patent praying to set aside the order dated 23.02.2015 made in WP.Nos.27416 and 30443 of 2012, on the file of this Court praying (i) to direct the District Collector Krishnagiri to initiate appropriate action based on the representation Dated 01.9.2012 (ii) to direct the first respondent to grant renewal of C-Form license for the theatre Srinivasa theatre, Hosur to the Petitioner.
For Petitioner : Mr.A.Chidambaram
O R D E R
(The Order of the Court was made by The Hon'ble The Chief Justice)
The undisputed fact is that the C-Form license to run the Srinivasa theatre, Hosur, which stood originally in the name of the father of the appellant was subsequently renewed in the name of the mother on the demise of the father in the year 1983. It appears that the family dispute started much later and the mother also was not interested in getting the renewal of the license in her name, while the appellant claimed that since he was practically running the cinema theatre, the license should be issued in his name as renewal in the name of the mother was on behalf of the joint family and he was the 'Karta'.
3.Learned counsel for the appellant states that the subsequent development is that now the mother wants the renewal of the license in her name and the appellant is satisfied with it.
