Nirmal Chatterjee v. State Of West Bengal And ORS.

19.10.2020 Item No.6 Ct. No.24 CHC Dismissed as withdrawn W.P.A.7507 of 2020 C.A.N.1 of 2020 (Via Video Conference) r Nirmal Kumar Chatterjee & anr.

Vs.

State of West Bengal & ors.

Mr. Dyutiman Banerjee ...for the petitioners C.A.N.1 of 2020 is application for urgent consideration of the writ petition. The application is disposed of by taking up the writ petition for consideration.

Pleadings and the cause-title of the writ petition demonstrate that the respondent no.6 died prior to the filing of the writ petition.

In such circumstances, since a writ petition against a dead person cannot be said to be maintainable, W.P.A.7507 of 2020 is dismissed as withdrawn with liberty to file afresh before the appropriate forum on the selfsame cause of action. (Debangsu Basak, J.)
