Disposal: 27-WITHDRAWN @ ADM.STAGE
Bench: N S SANJAY GOWDAL ODEDRA

Holding

The appeal is dismissed as withdrawn, with no merits considered.

Summary

The appellant filed a Letters Patent Appeal (C/LPA/389/2026) seeking permission to withdraw the appeal because the principal writ petition concerning a recruitment matter was scheduled for final disposal on 23 June 2026. The court considered the request and, without examining the merits of the underlying dispute, allowed the withdrawal. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed as withdrawn. The court also noted that the matter would be taken up for consideration on the scheduled date of the writ petition. No substantive opinion on the case merits was expressed.

Issues considered

Whether an appeal pending before the High Court can be withdrawn at the request of the appellant prior to final disposal of the main writ petition.
