TGS KURIAN JOSEPH, J. ----------------------------------------- O.P.No.18483 of 2001 ----------------------------------------- Dated this the 30th day of March, 2007 JUDGMENT The challenge is on Ext.P9 order passed by the 3rd respondent as directed by the second respondent. The issue pertains to the appointment of the petitioners under the first respondent. Despite the interim order of stay ever since 22-6-2001 there is no counter affidavit. It is seen from the report of the Joint Registrar, which is marked as Ext.P8, that the appointment was in the interest of the first respondent Society and there was no material illegality vitiating the selection. Therefore, Ext.P9 is quashed. The writ petition is disposed of as above. (KURIAN JOSEPH, JUDGE) ahg.
