High Court of Punjab & Haryana at Chandigarh & Ors. . . . . Respondents **** CORAM : HON’BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT **** 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? **** Present: None for the petitioner Ms. Monica Chibber Sharma, DAG Punjab Mr. Sarwan Singh, Senior Advocate for respondent No.5 ***** SURYA KANT J. (ORAL) (1). In this Civil Writ Petition, the petitioner seeks quashing of the final seniority list dated 21.05.1990 (Annexure P9) of members of the Punjab Superior Judicial Service. He also seeks quashing of the order dated 03.06.1988 (Annexure P1) whereby respondent No.2 was designated as District & Sessions Judge. (2). It is apparent from the memo of parties that at the relevant time, the petitioner as well as the private respondents were serving as District & Sessions Judges. (3). It is pointed out by Mr. Sarwan Singh, learned senior counsel representing respondent No.5 that during the pendency of this writ petition, respondent No.5 was elevated to the Bench of this High Court and after his retirement has unfortunately passed away. (4). Considering the fact that the re-shuffle in the seniority at this stage can possibly have no fruitful results, the writ petition is disposed of as having become infructuous. (5). Ordered accordingly. 12.01.2011 vishal shonkar (S u r y a K a n t) Judge
