JUSTICE AJAY KUMAR TRIPATHI) 17-07-2017 Merely because this appeal is disposed of on the magnanimity shown on behalf of the appellant, it does not mean that the Court appreciates the conduct of the respondents in carrying out the judicial order in letter and spirit. The appellant surely had made out a case for certain directions and creating obligation upon the respondents looking at the seven long years, which it took for refund of the excess money, which was required to
Patna High Court LPA No.1488 of 2014 (6) dt.17-07-2017 2/2 be refunded in terms of the 2011 judicial order. The respondents, however, are cautioned that the indulgence may not be there, if they behave in a similar fashion in any other litigation in future.
