State Citation: 2025 LiveLaw (Mad) 374 Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) party's general secretary N Anand @ Bussy Anand, on Monday (October 27) withdrew an anticipatory bail petition filed by him in the Madras High Court in connection with the Karur Stampede. Anand's counsel informed a bench of Chief Justice Manindra Mohan Shrivastava and Justice G Arul Murugan that he intended to withdraw the plea, since the investigation had been transferred to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) following the orders of the Supreme Court. Taking note of the same, the court allowed his request and dismissed the plea as withdrawn. Customs Brokers Licensing Regulations | 'Offence Report Need Not Be Penal'; 90-Day Period Begins Only Upon Receipt Of Report: Madras High Court Case Title: M/s. ACS Shipping & Logistics v.

M/s SKT Textile Mills Citation: 2025 LiveLaw (Mad) 376 The Madras High Court bench of Justice N Anand Venkatesh has observed that when a party purposely fails to avail an opportunity duly accorded by the Arbitral Tribunal to present its case, it cannot later use its own default as a ground to resist enforcement of the resultant award.

Hindustan Copper Limited wherein it was observed that where the party fails to take advantage of an opportunity duly accorded to, it cannot later invoke that ground. The Court observed that the ground under Section 48(1)(b) of the Act will not be available to a party, which makes a conscious and deliberate decision not to participate in the arbitral proceedings after receiving...
