SD/- M.C.HARI RANI, JUDGE. /TRUE COPY/ THOTTATHIL B.RADHAKRISHNAN, J. ------------------------------------------- O.P.No.13884 OF 2002 ------------------------------------------- Dated this the 7th day of September, 2007 O R D E R Though the petitioner had taken steps immediately following the admission and notices were issued from this Court, the notices sent to respondents 3 and 5 to 7, who are officials respondents, are yet to be returned. It is under such circumstances that the service is treated as not complete. Hence the petitioner is directed to serve four additional copies of the writ petition to the learned Government Pleader. 2. Learned Government Pleader takes notice for respondents 3 and 5 to 7. Service complete. Though there is an order of reference by my learned brother Mr.Justice K.Balakrishnan Nair on the question whether the PSC has to pay court fee on the application to condone delay, it appears that this matter is yet to be placed before the Hon'ble the Chief Justice following that order of reference dated OP.13884/02 Page numbers 16.7.2003. Nor is it pointed out that the said issue of law has been decided in any other case. The Registrar (Judicial) will, therefore, take necessary steps in that regard.
