Bombay High Court

SUNIL SANTOSH WARUDE AND ANRversusTHE DISTRICT COLLECTOR DHULE AND OTHERS

Disposal: DISPOSED OFF

Holding

The writ petition was dismissed as infructuous because the relief sought could no longer be granted.

Summary

Sunil Santosh Warude and another filed a writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution challenging the actions of the District Collector, Dhule. The petitioners were represented by Mr A.R. Syed, appearing on behalf of Mr S.B. Akhade. During the pendency of the proceedings, subsequent events occurred that made the relief sought by the petitioners moot. The Court held that because the subject matter of the petition had become infructuous, there was no longer any ground to entertain the writ. Accordingly, the petition was disposed of as infructuous without addressing any substantive legal issues.
