CORAM : SMT. VASANTI A. NAIK J. DATE : 18 th November, 2011. Heard. By this petition, the petitioner impugns the order passed by the Presiding Officer School Tribunal, Nagpur, on 1st of July, 2011, allowing an appeal filed by the respondent no.5 and quashing the order of termination dated 18.11.2010. The services of the respondent no.5 were terminated on 18.11.2010 without holding an inquiry though the respondent no.5 was a permanent employee. The petitioner submitted before the School Tribunal that it had revoked the termination order of the respondent no. 5 in the month of December, 2010 and hence nothing would survive in the appeal. However, the Tribunal allowed the appeal filed by the respondent no. 5 by quashing and setting aside the termination order and imposing costs of Rs.3000/- on the petitioner. 2 Since the petitioner had revoked the termination order dated 18.11.2010, it is not pointed out to this court as to how the operative part of the judgment dated 01.07.2011 prejudicially affects the petitioner except for the imposition of costs of Rs.3,000/-. There is no illegality in the imposition of costs of Rs.3,000/- as the petitioner had wrongly terminated the services of the respondent no.5 without holding an inquiry and then revoked the termination order. Even otherwise, by applying the principle of de minimis non curet lex this court is not inclined to interfere with the judgment dated 1st of July, 2011 merely because costs of Rs.3,000/- are imposed on the petitioner. In the result, the writ petition fails and is dismissed with no order as to costs. JUDGE Hirekhan.
