HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE ABHINAND KUMAR SHAVILI WRIT PETITION No. 27481 of 2007 ORDER:

This writ petition is filed seeking to issue a writ of certiorari calling for the record relating to and connected with I.D.No.209 of 2005 on the file of the Industrial Tribunal-Labour Court, Anantapur and quash the order dated 23.01.2007 passed therein modifying the order of removal of petitioner from service into compulsory retirement. A consequential relief is also sought to the respondents to reinstate the petitioner with continuity of service and with all consequential benefits.

When the matter is taken up for hearing, it is noticed that the petitioner has attained the age of superannuation during pendency of the writ petition. In view of the same, at this point of time, the relief sought by the petitioner for his reinstatement into service cannot be granted.

Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of directing the respondents to pay the service benefits of the petitioner for the service rendered by him prior to his compulsory retirement, if not already

paid, in accordance with the Regulations, within a period of four (4) weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Consequently, miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in the writ petition shall stand closed. No order as to costs. ______________________________ ABHINAND KUMAR SHAVILI, J 8th November, 2018 cbs
