JAYDEEP BHATESING JADHAVversusTHE STATE OF MAHARASHTRA THROUGH SECRETARY AND OTHERS

Disposal: DISPOSED OFF

Holding

The petition is infructuous and is therefore dismissed.

Summary

The petitioner, Jaydeep Bhatesing Jadav, filed writ petition No. 11120 of 2023 before the Bombay High Court, Aurangabad Bench, challenging actions of the State of Maharashtra. The petitioner’s counsel argued that the petition should be entertained despite the passage of time. The respondent, represented by the Additional Government Pleader, contended that the petition had become infructuous due to efflux of time. The Court examined whether a writ petition remains maintainable after a substantial lapse of time. Finding that the petition was indeed infructuous, the Court disposed of the writ petition without further hearing.
