IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA MJC No.179 of 2007 SANJIV PRASAD Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 3 19.9.2008 By order dated 11.10.2004 this Court had directed that the petitioner would be entitled to the arrears of salary from April 1993 to 15th of January, 1998. A show cause has been filed in which it has been stated that the arrears of salary have been paid to the petitioner. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner however states that the salary has been paid but other dues such as Time Bound Promotion etc. had not been considered by the department for which he has filed a representation before the department. It has rightly been pointed out by the counsel appearing on behalf of the State that those dues were not the subject matter of the contempt application, and as such I am not inclined to pass any orders with respect to the legality of the claim of the petitioner in this contempt application. 2 However, it goes without saying that if the representation is made before the proper authority it ought to be considered by the authority concerned in accordance with law. This contempt application is thus dismissed. Sanjay (Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
