Holding
The petition is deemed infructuous and is disposed of.
Summary
Deepak Barku Mali filed a writ petition in the Bombay High Court, Aurangabad Bench, challenging actions of the Divisional Joint Registrar of Cooperative Societies, Nasik and other respondents. The petitioner’s counsel argued that, owing to the passage of time, the subject matter of the petition had become infructuous and there was nothing left for the Court to consider. The Court accepted this submission, granting the petitioner liberty to approach the appropriate authority and the cooperative court for any further relief. No substantive merits of the original grievance were examined. Consequently, the writ petition was disposed of as infructuous.
Issues considered
- Whether the writ petition is rendered infructuous due to lapse of time and therefore cannot be entertained?

that by the passage of time, the subject matter of the petition is
rendered infructuous and nothing survives in the matter for
consideration. This will not preclude the petitioners from filing
application before the concerned authority and co-operative court.
2. With the aforesaid liberty, the writ petition is disposed of.
