Respondents CWP No. 16589 of 1992 Dr. M. S. Chaudhary ....... Petitioner Versus State of Punjab ........ Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE K. KANNAN Present:- None for the petitioner. Mr. Navdeep Sukhna, DAG., Punjab. **** K. Kannan, J (oral). 1. The prayer in the writ petitions was that the petitioners should not be dismissed from service till the decision in the Criminal Appeal filed by them in Criminal Appeal No. 424-SB of 1992. Counsel for the State says that the Criminal Appeal has also been dismissed. There was a direction by the Division Bench on 10.9.1993 for listing of the case after the Criminal Appeal is disposed of. Now that it is brought to the attention of the Court that the Criminal Appeal was decided on 12.10.1998 itself and that the decision of the trial Court, was confirmed, nothing survives for consideration in favour of the petitioners. 2. Both the writ petitions are dismissed. (K. KANNAN) JUDGE December 9, 2011 archana
