IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA LPA No.316 of 2008 PRABHUDEO DWIVEDI Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- For the Appellant : Mr. Abhimanyu Sharma, Adv. For the Respondents : Mr. Sanjay Kr. Singh, Adv. ---------- P R E S E N T Hon'ble the Chief Justice & Hon'ble Mr. Justice Kishore K. Mandal ----------- Dated, the 3rd July, 2008. That the appellant was suspended in the year 1988 is not in dispute. He challenged the suspension order before the Single Judge of this Court after two decades is also not in dispute. Even if we accept that in the year 1989, the appellant made some representation for withdrawal of suspension and also made few representations subsequently, in our view if within reasonable time the appellant’s grievance was not redressed, he ought to have approached the Court immediately and not waited for two decades. 2. In the circumstances, dismissal of writ petition by the Single Judge cannot be faulted. 3. Appeal is dismissed in limine. R. M. Lodha, CJ Kishore K. Mandal, J Pawan/-
