THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION No.19447 of 2007 ORDER: In this writ petition, the petitioner, who retired from service on 31.03.2007 as In-charge Head Master of Model High School run by Osmania University, questioned the action of the respondents in deducting certain amounts from the gratuity and terminal benefits payable to him. A counter-affidavit is filed by the respondents stating that some amounts were withheld, in view of attachment orders issued by the Courts. When the matter is taken up on an earlier occasion, it was adjourned to enable the learned Standing Counsel for Osmania University appearing for the respondents to get instructions as to the total amount covered by the attachment orders and any amount, which is not covered by the attachment orders, is payable to the petitioner. Today, when the matter is taken up, it is submitted by the learned Standing Counsel that an amount of Rs.2,61,942/- is payable to the petitioner after deducting the amounts, which are covered by attachment orders. In view of the above statement of the learned Standing Counsel, I deem it appropriate to direct the respondents to pay the petitioner the amounts, which are due to him and which are not covered by the attachment orders, as early as possible, preferably, within a period of four (4) weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Subject to the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. ______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 22nd JUNE, 2010. kvni
