GOVERNMENT PLEADER FOR R SMT.LAKSHMI RANI THIS CONTEMPT OF COURT CASE (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 20/01/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: V.GIRI, J ------------------- C.O.C.25/2009 -------------------- Dated this the 20th day of January, 2009 JUDGMENT Heard Mr.C.Rajendran, learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Government Pleader. I have perused the affidavit filed by the respondents. I am not in a position to say that there is violation of the orders passed by this Court in the light of Annexure- A6 order which is same as Annexure-R1(a). Since I have reserved the right of the Government to suspend the petitioner, if necessary by passing a fresh order, the suspension effected as per the subsequent order passed on 3.1.2009 cannot be considered as one in contravention of the orders passed by this Court. It is open to the petitioner to challenge the said order. Suffice it to say that the petitioner should be treated as having been in service from the date of Annexure- A6 order till the date on which he was suspended for the second time as per order dated 3.1.2009, and shall be entitled to all such benefits as accruing therefrom. Subject to the right of the petitioner to C.O.C.25/2009 2 take steps in relation to the fresh order of suspension, Contempt of Court case is closed. V.GIRI, Judge mrcs
