2013 (4) TMI 78 - KARNATAKA HIGH COURTRecovery proceedings - Circular dated 1st January 2013 mandating the initiation of recovery proceedings thirty days after filing of the appeal calls for interference - Held that:- There is large pendency of appeals for hearing before the authorities and there being only one bench of CESTAT at Bangalore, with territorial jurisdiction over three southern States, no useful purpose would be served by directing consideration of applications for stay at this distance of time. Regard being had to the fact that the Union of India has failed to set up large number of Tribunals such as CESTAT and if this is done, then there would be no cause for complaint over the non-consideration of the applications for stay, in appeals, by only one Tribunal, presently functioning at Bangalore. This should be an eye opener for Union of India to establish and constitute any number of Tribunals in all the States in the Country - Petitions are accordingly ordered.
