IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.6494 of 2007 RAJESH KUMAR CHAUDHARI @ RAJES Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2. 23.4.2009 This case has been listed at serial ‘0’ on motion slip filed that the petitioner did not wish to press the application on merits but desirous to withdraw it to move before the appellate authority. When the matter is called out, learned counsel reiterates the aforesaid submission. The writ application is disposed off with the observation that if the petitioner files the application before the appellate authority, it shall be required to consider and dispose of the same in accordance with law by a reasoned and speaking order within the statutory time framed under Rule 2 of the notification creating the authority. The withdrawal of this application to move the appellate authority shall not be construed by it as the reluctant of this Court to entertain the writ application on merits and it shall not proceed on any assumptions for that purpose but shall decide the same by a reasoned and speaking order. The writ application stands disposed of. P. Kumar (Navin Sinha, J.)
