Being aggrieved by the order passed by the learned Single Judge in Writ Petition No.28845 of 1997, dated 7th March, 2007, this appeal has been filed. The petitioner, who is the appellant herein, had approached the learned Single Judge with a prayer with regard to ﬁxation of pay. The pay, which was sought to be re-ﬁxed, was payable in the month of March, 1971 and the petition had been filed in 1997. On the ground of delay, the learned Single Judge has rejected the petition. We have heard the learned Advocate and have perused the impugned order. The learned Advocate appearing for the appellant has submitted that the law of limitation would not apply to writ petition, but we do not agree with the said submission. Looking to the facts of the case, we are in agreement with the view expressed by the learned Single Judge. We do not ﬁnd any substance in the appeal. The appeal is, therefore, dismissed with no order as to costs. ANIL R. DAVE, C.J. 14th November, 2008 R. SUBHASH REDDY, J. ……REGISTRAR To 1. The Chairman & Managing Director, A.P.
