SRI.P.SANTHALINGAM, SC, KSEB THIS WRIT APPEAL HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 30/07/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:- H.L.DATTU, C.J. & A.K.BASHEER, J. ------------------------------------------- W.A.No.1820 of 2002 ------------------------------------------ Dated, this the 30th day of July, 2008 JUDGMENT H.L.Dattu, C. J. This writ appeal is filed by the petitioners in O.P.No.6285 of 2001, aggrieved by the orders passed by the learned Single Judge dated 17th January, 2002. By the impugned order, the learned Single Judge has rejected the original petition filed by the petitioner. 2. Though this writ appeal was filed along with an application seeking condonation of delay in filing the appeal, in the year 2002, the delay was condoned only on 14.7.2008 and the appeal is coming up for admission before us today. That only means, the respondents, as of now, must have implemented the orders passed by the learned District Magistrate. In view of the above, in our opinion, as of now, nothing survives in this writ appeal for our consideration and decision. 3. Therefore, the writ appeal requires to be rejected and it is rejected. 4. Consequently, C.M.P.No.4709 of 2008 also stands rejected. Ordered accordingly. (H.L.DATTU) CHIEF JUSTICE (A.K.BASHEER) JUDGE vns
