THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO WP No. 11540 of 2010 ORDER: Learned counsel for the writ petitioner submits that the writ petitioner has since submitted an application seeking for Voluntary Retirement from the service of the respondent – bank but, however, by virtue of the orders passed by this court to maintain status quo, the said request of the petitioner is not processed by the respondent bank. Therefore, the interim order granting status quo passed on 20.5.2010 is vacated so as to enable the respondent bank to process and pass appropriate orders on the request made by the writ petitioner seeking voluntary retirement. In the peculiar situation prevailing, I hope and trust that appropriate orders would be passed within 15 days from today on the application said to have been submitted by the writ petitioner. It is needless to observe that any application submitted by the writ petitioner soliciting grant of leave would also be dealt with in accordance with the rules on the subject. In view of the vacation of the order of status quo, with the consent of both parties, the writ petition stands disposed of in the above terms. No costs. ------------- knk 16.07.2010
