THE HON'BLE MS JUSTICE G.ROHINI WRIT PETITION NO : 630 of 2005 Dated: 31-01-2006 Between: G.Vijaya Kumar ..... PETITIONER AND The Government of Andhra Pradesh, Law Department, Secretariat, Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh and two others. .....RESPONDENTS THE HON'BLE MS JUSTICE G.ROHINI WRIT PETITION NO : 630 of 2005 O R D E R: This writ petition is filed aggrieved by the panel prepared by the respondents 2 and 3 for appointment to the post of Government Pleader for District Courts, Kurnool. The grievance of the petitioner is that initially his name was included in the panel of advocates sent by the District Judge, however, the same was returned by the third respondent-District Collector on the ground that the said list did not include the candidates belonging to Schedule Caste. It appears that thereafter a fresh panel was sent, in which the name of the petitioner was not included. Aggrieved by the said action, the petitioner filed this writ petition contending inter alia that the action of the respondents is contrary to the procedure prescribed under the A.P. Law Officers (Appointment and Conditions of Service) Instructions, 2000. Though no counter affidavit has been filed, the learned Government Pleader for Home, under instructions, states that under G.O.Rt.No.167, Law dated 31-01-2005, the first respondent has already finalized the appointment and one Smt. D.Saileela was appointed as Government Pleader on 15-02-2005. In view of the subsequent events, nothing survives for adjudication on merits. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of granting leave and liberty to the petitioner to institute fresh proceedings, to challenge the appointment made under GO.Rt.No.167, Law dated 31-01-2005. No costs. ____________ G.ROHINI,J Dated:-31-01-2006 klp
