2009 (1) TMI 292 - HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTARetention of the goods - the petitioners did not get the goods or the price thereof which were retained by the authorities - Held that:- The department has also wrote a letter to the petitioners to the effect that they shall comply with the order already passed by the court. It was submitted on behalf of the writ petitioner that after writing such letter, the authorities cannot turn around and question the order so passed by the Trial court. In view of that, it appears to us that the Court was conscious about the authority of the court for adjudication of the damages suffered by the petitioners by an appropriate forum. In our considered opinion, we do not find that there is any illegality or irregularity in respect of the order so passed by the Trial Court. The order suffers from no irregularity or illegality on the contrary the court held that it cannot decide damages so suffered by the writ petitioners for illegal retention of the goods in question by them. Accordingly, in our considered opinion, This appeal must fail and is hereby dismissed.
