ORDER
These writ petitions have remained pending for quite
some time. However, due to the paucity of time, the judgment
could not be delivered. As this Court is not sitting in the tax
jurisdiction, it would be appropriate to post these writ
petitions before the regular Bench having tax jurisdiction.
Therefore, the Registry is directed to post these writ
petitions before the regular Bench having tax jurisdiction and
these cases are not to be treated as part heard with this Court.
