The matter has been listed out of turn on prayer made by the petitioner's counsel for directing the Authorities to dispose of his representation (Annexure 23), wherein claim has been made for permission to submit joining.

Patna High Court CWJC No.17530 of 2013(2) dt.29-07-2019 2/2 Darbhanga. Appointment letter is dated 05.06.2008 and contains clear stipulation that the same shall be a short term contract for a period of one year.

The facts are such that the petitioner has no enforceable claim on the basis of appointment letter dated 05.06.2008 since the period of short term contractual engagement has come to an end way back in the year, 2009, at least four years prior to the filing of this writ petition. Writ petition stands dismissed.
