RAM CHANDRAversusCOMMISSIONER BAREILLY DIVISION AND ANOTHER

Decided

Holding

The writ petition is dismissed as it has become infructuous.

Summary

The petitioner, Ram Chandra, filed writ petition No. 53317 of 2000 before the High Court of Judicature at Allahabad. The petition was listed as "likely to be infructuous" and no further case was called out. The Court observed that, by the efflux of time, the petition had become infructuous. Consequently, the Court dismissed the writ petition on the ground that it was no longer maintainable. The interim order previously granted was vacated, but the parties were permitted to move an application for recall if the matter still survived.

                                    1. This case is listed under the heading of "likely to be infructuous".

                                    2. Case called out. None appears.

                                    3. It appears that by efflux of time, the present writ petition has become
                                    infructuous.

                                    4. In view of above, the writ petition is dismissed as having become
                                    infructuous.

                                    5. Interim order, if any, stands vacated.

                                    6. However, the parties are at liberty to move an appropriate application
                                    for recall of this order in case the matter still survives.
