THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 31/10/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J ----------------------------------------------------------- W.P.(C).No.32077/2008 ----------------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 31st day of October, 2008 JUDGMENT Aggrieved by Ext.P1 staff fixation order, petitioner has filed Ext.P2 revision before the DPI along with Ext.P2(a), a petition for stay of Ext.P1 to the extent it directs termination of her service. According to the petitioner, now there are sufficient posts available to continue in service and therefore pending orders in the revision she shall not be discharged. Having regard to the fact that the matter is pending before the DPI, I feel that it should be left to the DPI to consider the request of the petitioner for interim relief as well. Accordingly the writ petition is disposed of directing that the DPI shall consider Ext.P2 and pass orders thereon within 8 weeks from the date of production of a copy of the judgment. In the meantime, it will be open to the petitioner 2 to move the DPI for early orders on Ext.P2(a) stay petition, in which case, orders on Ext.P2(a) shall be passed without any further delay. Petitioner shall produce a copy of the judgment along with a copy of the writ petition before the DPI for compliance. ANTONY DOMINIC JUDGE vi. 3
