TRUE COPY P.A.TO JUDGE T.R.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, J. ------------------------------------- W.P.(C)No. 16774 Of 2011 -------------------------------------------------- DATED THIS THE 14TH DAY OF JULY, 2011 J U D G M E N T This Writ Petition was filed by the petitioner seeking for a direction to issue the original mark list, namely the original of Exhibit P1 and for a direction to respondents 3 and 4 to extend the time limit fixed for the delivery of original of Exhibit P1. 2. The petitioner has already been admitted in the 1st respondent-school based on the marks obtained in the examination conducted by the CBSE. At the time of admission, Exhibit P1 was produced. But later, the school authorities insisted for production of original of the same and a specified time limit was fixed beyond which it was informed to the petitioner that the time will not be extended and if the same is not produced, the admission itself will be cancelled. It is in that context that the petitioner filed this Writ Petition. 3. By interim order dated 22.6.2011, this Court directed the 1st respondent not to cancel the admission of the petitioner for non-production of the original of Exhibit P1 and a further W.P.(C)No.16774/11 -2- direction was issued to the 2nd respondent to issue the original of Exhibit P1 within a period of one week. Evidently, as on today, the petitioner's admission has not been cancelled. It is further submitted by the learned Standing Counsel for the CBSE that the original of Exhibit P1 has already been sent by courier service to the school itself on 8.7.2011. Recording the same, the Writ Petition is closed. Sd/-(T.R.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, JUDGE) dsn
