HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.5186 of 2010 Date: 09.03.2010 Between: M. Anthony. … Petitioner And The Government of India, rep. by its Secretary, Ministry of Home Affairs, New Delhi & others. … Respondents HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R. SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.5186 of 2010 ORDER: In this writ petition, the petitioner seeks directions by way of Mandamus, declaring the action of respondent No.3 in not passing any orders on his voluntary retirement notice, dated 23rd September 2008, as illegal and arbitrary. 2. Even according to the petitioner, after conducting inquiry in the disciplinary proceedings, on the proven charges, he was dismissed from service by an order, dated 30th May 2009, and against the said dismissal order, he filed a writ petition being W.P.No.11938 of 2009, which is stated to be pending before this Court. 3. As the petitioner has already been dismissed from service, which has been challenged by him in W.P.No.11938 of 2009, the question of considering his voluntary retirement notice, does not arise. If the petitioner succeeds in the writ petition in W.P.No.11938 of 2009, he can as well seek for acceptance of his request for voluntary retirement, but when the dismissal orders are in force, he is not entitled for any relief in this writ petition. 4. For the aforesaid reasons, the writ petition is devoid of merit and it is accordingly dismissed. No order as to costs. ______________________ 9th March 2010 R. SUBHASH REDDY, J ajr
