1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO. 4912 OF 2009 WITH CIVIL APPLICATION NO. 1222 OF 2009 Nav Nirman Mandal. ..... Petitioner. Versus The Minister of State for Education & Ors.. ... Respondents. Mr. A. S. Chauhan, President of the Petitioner present. Mr. A. H. Palekar, AGP for the State. Mr. S. A. Sawant for Respondent No.3. CORAM: BILAL NAZKI and MRS.V.K.TAHILRAMANI, JJ. DATED : 15TH JUNE, 2009. P. C.: This writ petition has been filed challenging an order of the Minister granting stay of an earlier order of transfer of a school pending an appeal before him. Learned Asstt. Government Pleader appearing for the State submits that the appeal has been filed very recently and the appeal can be disposed of by the Minister. The order passed by the Minister is of 8th May, 2009 and we do not find it proper to interfere at this stage when the Minister has merely passed an order of stay and not heard the appeal. It appears that he has not even heard the parties in the application for stay. 2. In this view of the matter, we dispose of the writ petition directing 2 the Minister to dispose of the appeal pending before him within four weeks from today as suggested by the learned Assistant Government Pleader. Order accordingly. 3. In view of the disposal of the writ petition itself, the civil application does not survive and is disposed of as such. Sd/- (BILAL NAZKI, J.) Sd/- (MRS.V.K.TAHILRAMANI, J.)
