Holding
The application is disposed of as infructuous.
Summary
Four doctors filed a petition before the Patna High Court challenging actions of the State of Bihar and its officials. The petitioners argued that the order of the writ court had been complied with, rendering the petition no longer maintainable. They sought a formal order declaring the case infructuous. The court examined whether the petition had become moot in light of compliance with the earlier order. Finding that the petition was indeed infructuous, the court disposed of the application without further hearing. The order effectively closed the proceedings.
