IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA MJC No.660 of 2009 SUO MOTU CONTEMPT AGAINST V.C & THE REG. OF LNMU Versus ----------- 4. 25/06/2010 Husband of the petitioner, a Library Assistant, died in harness on 15.6.2001. Petitioner has filed the connected writ application (C.W.J.C.No.534 of 2008) for a direction to the respondent University to pay her entire death-cum-post retiral dues. This Court, in a batch of cases, including the connected writ application, passed a detailed order on 12.9.2008 giving certain directions to the respondent University for payment of dues of the petitioners. The order dated 12.9.2008 and subsequent common orders passed in the batch of cases have been referred to in the order passed in M.J.C.No.566 of 2009. After this contempt proceeding was initiated, a supplementary counter affidavit has been filed on behalf of the University authorities in the main writ application itself on 13.1.2010. Again, a supplementary show cause has been filed on behalf of Vice Chancellor of the University on 27.1.2010. Along with the supplementary show cause, a - 2 - hand written as well as printed calculation chart has been annexed as Annexure-A, showing total dues of the petitioner as Rs.2,14,179/-. It is stated in the show cause that only 75% of the dues have been paid to the petitioner pending final audit report of the State Finance Auditor. Rest 25% of the total admitted dues are still to be paid to the petitioner. This shows that there has been some compliance of orders of this Court although not in true letter and spirit. However, since petitioner has not filed any reply to the show cause and has not disputed the calculation made therein, this Court does not find it appropriate to hold the contemnors guilty in this case. Therefore, this contempt proceeding is dropped and the contempt application is disposed of. Pradeep/ ( J. N. Singh, J.)
