For the Respondent :- Mr. Nagendra Sharma, AC to GP8 ---------- 3 25.03.2010 Heard Mr. Kishore Kumar Thakur, learned counsel for the appellant and Mr. Nagendra Sharma, learned counsel for the State. Questioning the legal propriety of the order dated 19.8.2009 passed by the learned single Judge in C.W.J.C. No. 10019 of 2009, the present appeal has been preferred. The grievance of the appellant petitioner (hereinafter to be referred to as ‘the appellant’) is that though he was appointed on the post of Junior Accounts 2 Clerk but such post was not there at the time of appointment and that apart, he is entitled to get the benefit of Senior Accounts Clerk on the basis of the letter dated 28.9.1999. Learned single Judge has laid emphasis on the letter of appointment and declined to interfere. Be it noted, in course of hearing of this appeal, an I.A. No. 2709 of 2010 has been filed, whereby, by annexure nos. 1 & 2 of the said I.A., the appellant has been given the status of Accounts Clerk and also given the higher pay-scale. In view of the aforesaid, we are only inclined to state that the order of the learned single Judge would not be an impediment for conferment of the aforesaid benefit as the State Government has already done so. With the aforesaid observation, the appeal stands disposed of. Rishi (Dipak Misra, CJ.) (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
