The relief sought was based on the claim that the dues were admitted but not paid. The petitioner’s counsel subsequently moved the court for permission to withdraw the application. The court considered the request and found no impediment to allowing the withdrawal. Consequently, the application was dismissed as withdrawn.
Issues considered
