SRI.SUNIL CYRIAC, SC, COCHIN UNIVERSITY THIS WRIT APPEAL HAVING BEEN FINALLY HEARD ON 26/07/2007, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: K.S.Radhakrishnan & Antony Dominic, JJ. ======================== W.A.No.2977 of 2002 ======================== Dated this the 26th day of July, 2007. JUDGMENT Radhakrishnan,J. This Writ Appeal arises from the judgment in O.P.No.26253 of 2002. Original Petition was preferred seeking a writ of mandamus directing the respondents to consider Ext.P2 mark list in the counselling held on 17.9.2002. Petitioner was granted admission for B.Tech. Course on the basis of an interim order passed by this Court. University has taken up the stand that the petitioner had passed the qualifying examination only after the interview. Learned single Judge found no merits in the Original Petition and the same was dismissed. 2. By virtue of an interim order passed by the Division Bench petitioner was admitted to the course and she has now passed the course with first class. University has also issued a certificate and it is stated that she is engaged as an Instructor in an Institution. Since the petitioner has already completed the course and a certificate has been issued to her and she is gainfully employed, we are inclined to set WA 2977/02 -: 2 :- aside the judgment of the learned single Judge and allow this appeal. University will take further follow up action to regularise her admission. K.S.Radhakrishnan, Judge. Antony Dominic, Judge. ess 26/7
