SAYEED HAKIM SAYYED KATTHUMIYAversusABHIJIT B KUMBHAT THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER ZP BEED

Disposal: DISPOSED OFF

Holding

The petition is disposed as there is nothing further to adjudicate because the contempt order has been complied with.

Summary

The petitioner, Sayeed Hakim Sayyed Katthumiya, filed a contempt petition challenging the non‑implementation of an order dated 08/08/2019 issued by the Divisional Commissioner, Aurangabad, concerning the appointment to the post of Head of the Centre. The respondent, Abhijit B. Kumbhat, Chief Executive Officer of Zilla Parishad Beed, along with the State, argued that the contempt order had already been complied with. The Court examined the record and found that the required appointment had indeed been effected and that similar pending matters had been resolved. Consequently, the Court held that there was no longer any operative issue remaining in the petition. The petition was therefore disposed of by the Court.

Issues considered

What is the status of the contempt order concerning the implementation of the Divisional Commissioner’s appointment order?
Is the petition for contempt still maintainable given the alleged compliance?

          PER COURT :
          1.   Though learned counsel for the petitioner has been elevated as
          a Judge of this Court, but learned counsel appearing for Respondent
          – Zilla Parishad submits that the order under contempt has already
          been complied with.
          2.   Upon perusal of the record, it appears that the order under
          contempt was in respect of implementation of the order dated
          08/08/2019 passed by the Divisional Commissioner, Aurangabad,
          regarding appointment to the post of Head of the Centre. It appears
          that the said order has already been implemented and that similar
          matters have also been disposed of.
          3.   In view of the above, nothing further survives in the present
          petition. Accordingly, the petition stands disposed of.
