Issues:
1. Vacation of attachment order under PMLA over assets of corporate debtor. Analysis: 1. The judgment pertains to an application filed by the Resolution Professional seeking vacation of an attachment order passed by the Adjudicating Authority under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) over the assets of the corporate debtor. The Resolution Professional reported that they have no objection for the dismissal of the application as withdrawn with liberty to come before the Bench with the same cause of action. The Bench noted that the appeal on the attachment order is pending before the Appellate Tribunal PMLA (ATMAL), and the counsel on behalf of Enforcement Directorate has been appearing for several hearings. Considering the circumstances and to avoid the appearance of a Government Authority before the Bench without any purpose, the application was dismissed with liberty to file afresh if the appeal is allowed by the Hon'ble ATML. 2. The judgment concludes by stating that the application is dismissed as withdrawn with liberty as mentioned earlier. The decision was based on the Resolution Professional's stance and the status of the appeal pending before the Appellate Tribunal PMLA. The Bench's rationale for the dismissal was to prevent unnecessary appearances before the Bench and to allow the Resolution Professional to file a fresh application if the appeal is successful at the Appellate Tribunal PMLA.
