This application is for initiating contempt proceeding against the opposite parties for their alleged wilful disobeying the order dated 1.9.1995 passed by this Court in CWJC No.8356 of 1993. From perusal of the order dated 15th of April, 1998 passed in MJC No.2687 of 1995, as contained in Annexure 3, it appears that the above contempt application was filed alleging disobedience of the aforesaid order dated 1.9.1995. The said contempt application was heard and after hearing, this Court disposed of the same by observing that no case for contempt is made out as there is no wilful and deliberate disobedience or disregard of the aforesaid order in question. The petitioners re- agitated the matter by filing another contempt application, vide M.J.C. No.2380 of 2001. The same after long consideration on different dates was disposed of finally vide order dated 12.9.2007, as contained in Annexure 5 series. The contempt proceeding was dropped. Learned Additional Advocate General no.3 submits that with respect to the matter in issue, the petitioners had already filed - 2 - writ petition for redressal of their grievances vide CWJC No.17065 of 2007. The said writ application is pending. It is further submitted that the present contempt application was although filed in the year 2009, but in the whole of the contempt application there is no mention of the aforesaid writ application. Upon considering the submissions of the parties, this Court finds that the matter was agitated on the earlier occasions also vide two contempt applications, which were disposed of. This Court had also observed that no contempt is made out against the opposite parties for the reason that there is no disobedience of the order dated 1.9.1995 in CWJC No.8356 of 1993, besides the fact that the aforesaid writ application vide CWJC No.17065 of 2007 is pending. In the opinion of the Court, this contempt application does not deserve to be proceeded. The same is, accordingly, dismissed. PNM (Shailesh Kumar Sinha, J.)
