PETITIONER AND The Secretary, State Transport Authority, A.P.Hyderabad .....RESPONDENT THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.3344 of 2002 ORDER: This writ petition is filed for the following substantive relief: “Writ of Mandamus, declaring the orders of the respondent passed in Memo No.108/B4/02, dated 13.02.2002, in rejecting the application for release of the vehicle bearing registration No.AP09V-1000 from the coverage of State Wide Contract Carriage Permit No.6/97 valid upto 06.07.2002, as arbitrary, illegal and consequently to direct the respondent to release the vehicle from the coverage of permit No.6/97 by issuing clearance certificate so as to enable the petitioner to replace the vehicle.” At the hearing, no one represented the petitioner. A perusal of the record shows that on 21.01.2002 this Court directed the respondent to release the vehicle. In view of the same, nothing survives for consideration in the present writ petition. The Writ Petition is, therefore, dismissed as infructuous. ____________________________ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY,J Dated: 13.02.2008 Dsr
