Karnataka HC upholds dismissal of writ petition where alternative statutory remedy available under Customs Act
Karnataka HC dismissed the writ appeal challenging the single Judge's order that rejected a writ petition on grounds that alternative statutory remedy was available before the Commissioner of Customs. The Court upheld the single Judge's reasoning that availability of statutory remedy under the Customs Act justified dismissal of the writ petition. The appeal was dismissed with all contentions kept open, finding no good grounds to entertain the writ appeal.
The Karnataka High Court, with Hon'ble Justices V. Gopala Gowda and K. Bhakthavatsala presiding, dismissed the writ appeal filed against the order dated 24.03.2009, which had rejected Writ Petition No. 7699/2008. The appellant contended that the learned single Judge erred by rejecting the petition on the basis that an alternative statutory remedy was available before the Commissioner of Customs. The Court upheld the single Judge's reasoning, emphasizing that the availability of a statutory remedy under the Customs Act justified dismissal of the writ petition. The Court stated, "We see no good ground to entertain the writ appeal," and accordingly dismissed the appeal while keeping all contentions open.
