these considerations, may judge it proper to impose, so that the fine shaii
not in any case exceed the sum of one thousand rupees.
III. The collector, or other officer acting in that capacity, who may
exercise the powers vested in him by this Regulation, shall previously
make a summary inquiry, in the presence of the party charged with dis-
obeying or neglecting the order issued to him, or of his representative, if,
on being duly summoned, he shall attend in person, or by vakeei, for that
purpose; if lie shall fail to attend, either in person or by vakeei, the
summary inquiry shall be conducted ex parte, and the collector shall record
upon his proceedings the whole of the evidence obtained in proof of the
neglect or disobedience for which a fine may be imposed.
IV. The collector or other officer who may adjudge a fine under this
Regulation, shall be competent to levy the amount by the same process
as is authorized for the recovery of arrears of the public revenue. Pro-
vided that if an appeal be preferred from his decision, within six weeks
from the date of it, to the Board of Revenue in whose jurisdiction the
district may be situate, and sufficient security be tendered for performing
the judgment of the Board upon the appeai, the collector shall stay the
execution of his order for levying the fine imposed by him, until he shall
receive the final order of the Board.
V. Appeals from the orders of collectors or other public officers,
adjudging fines under this Regulation, may be preferred on the stamped
paper prescribed for other appeals to the Revenue Boards, either imme-
diately to the proper Board, or through the officer by whom the fine may
have been adjudged ; and, on admission of the appeal, the whole of the
proceedings in the case shall be transmitted to the Board. But no such
appeal shall be receivable after the expiration of six weeks from the date
of the judgment, without proof of sufficient reason for the delay, to the
satisfaction of the Board by whom the case may be cognizable
