For the Petitioner/s : Mr. Mohammed Abu Haidar For the Respondent/s : Mr. Rakesh Kumar Jha ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE HEMANT KUMAR SRIVASTAVA ORAL ORDER 01-08-2018 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned counsel appearing for the opposite parties. The petitioner filed this contempt petition being aggrieved by non compliance of order dated 19.08.2017 passed in CWJC No. 11138 of 2016 but admittedly, the aforesaid order dated 19.08.2017 was passed on I.A No. 4911 of 2017 which had been field in CWJC No. 11138 of 2016.

Learned counsel appearing for the opposite parties submits that the husband of the petitioner was dismissed from service and the aforesaid fact was not brought to the notice of this Court while passing order dated 19.08.2017 in CWJC No. 11138 of 2016. He further submits that moreover, the admitted dues of

Patna High Court MJC No.3792 of 2017 (4) dt.01-08-2018 2/2 the petitioner has already been paid which has specifically been pleaded at Para-8 of show cause.

On the other hand, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that leave encashment, gratuity as well as salary have not been paid to the petitioner.

The perusal of order dated 19.08.2017 passed in CWJC No. 11138 of 2016 goes to show that this Court directed the opposite parties to make payment of admitted dues of gratuity, leave encashment and part provident fund and Para-8 of the show cause reflects that the provident fund to the tune of Rs. 75907/- and Rs. 31560/- as well as arrears of salary have already been paid from March 2000 to November 2007. So far as the gratuity amount is concerned, it has not been paid to the petitioner on the ground of his retrenchment. Therefore, it is obvious that all the admitted dues have already been paid to the petitioner. Since this Court had directed the opposite parties to make payment of admitted dues and admitted dues have already been paid, there is no need to keep this petition pending.

Accordingly, this petition stands disposed of. (Hemant Kumar Srivastava, J) N.K/- U
