SIRI JAGAN, J. ============ WP(C) No.30260/2008 =============== Dated this the 17th day of August 2009. J U D G M E N T =========== This writ petition was admitted on 17.11.2008. Service of notice on the 6th respondent is not complete since the notice has been returned unserved with the endorsement “abolished”. The matter came up in the defect on 11.8.2009. On that day a representation was made on behalf of the counsel for the petitioner seeking time for curing the defect. But the counsel who represented the counsel for the petitioner did not even know what the defect was. However the matter was adjourned to 12.8.2009. When the matter again came up on 12.8.2009, the counsel for the petitioner again sought for time to cure the defect, which was granted and the writ petition was posted to today. When the matter was taken up today, none appeared for the petitioner. In the above circumstances, this writ petition is dismissed for non prosecution. S. SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE. app/-
