IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION LETTERS PATENT APPEAL NO.309 OF 2009 IN WRIT PETITION NO.4568 OF 2009 The President, Shri Vadjaidevi Educational Trust and Ors. .. Appellant Versus Ashok Shamrao Londhe .. Respondent Mr.Avinash Fatangare for appellants Mr.Satyajeet Rajeshirke for respondent CORAM : ANIL R. DAVE C.J & S.C.DHARMADHIKARI, J. DATE : 16th February 2010. P.C.: 1] By an order dated 28th September 2006 the respondent came to be dismissed from service by the appellants. Being aggrieved by the said order, respondent No.1 had filed an appeal before the School Tribunal. After considering the evidence and relevant material, the Tribunal allowed the appeal by an order dated 31st March 2009 and the order of dismissal came to be quashed and set aside. 2] Being aggrieved by the said order passed by the Tribunal dated 31st March 2009, a writ petition was preferred by the Appellants herein in this Court being W.P.No.4568 of 2009. The said writ petition was dismissed by the learned Single Judge on 4th November 2009. Being aggrieved by the said order passed by the learned Single Judge, this LPA has been preferred by the appellants. 3] We have heard learned Advocates for both sides and we have also perused the order passed by the Tribunal as well as the judgement delivered by the learned Single Judge dismissing the petition. 4] On hearing learned Advocate and on perusal of the aforestated orders, we find that the principles of natural justice were not adhered to while dismissing the respondent from service. It is apparent that the enquiry was not conducted properly and the person who was the complainant was also part of the Committee taking final decision. 5] We do not find any substance in the appeal as the order of the learned Judge appears to be just, legal and proper. LPA is dismissed. 6] At this juncture, the learned Advocate appearing for appellants submits that the appellants would like to initiate a fresh enquiry. Needless to state that they may do so, if it is open to them. 7] In view of the dismissal of LPA, Civil Application St.No.355 of 2009 does not survive and the same is dismissed as such.
