HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY CONTEMPT CASE No.605 of 2010 Date 28.07.2010 Between: Vanka Vijaya Lakshmi. ..... PETITIONER AND Botta Venkataramana. .....RESPONDENTS Counsel for the Petitioner : Sri M.S.R. Chandra Muthy for Sri M.Subramanyam Counsel for the Respondents 1 to 3: Sri S.Lakshminarayana Reddy HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY CONTEMPT CASE No.605 of 2010 ORDER: This Contempt Case is filed alleging wilful disobedience of the order dated 12.03.2010 in W.P.No.22182 of 2009. The petitioner in this case filed the above mentioned writ petition for a mandamus to direct the respondents to transfer the petitioner from Gokul Institute of Technology and Sciences, Piridi, Bobbili, Vizianagaram to DADI Institute of Engineering and Technology, Anakapalle, Visakhapatnam and to re-conduct the internal examinations for which she was not allowed. This Court after hearing both the sides disposed of the said writ petition with a direction that on payment of the dues calculated in the light of the observations contained in the order, respondent No.1 shall issue Transfer and Other Certificates to the petitioner to enable her to join the new college. Alleging violation of the said order, the present contempt case is filed. In the counter affidavit filed by the respondent, it is inter alia stated that the petitioner is due in a sum of Rs.35,900/- and, therefore, the respondent has not issued the Transfer Certificate. Learned counsel for the petitioner disputed the claim of the petitioner that the above mentioned sum is due. In support of the respondent’s plea that a sum of Rs.35,900/- is due, he has filed a calculation sheet. In my opinion, the dispute pertaining to quantum of amount due cannot be the subject matter of the contempt case. If the petitioner intends to raise a dispute in this regard, he is entitled to avail a fresh remedy. As there is genuine dispute pertaining to payment of dues by the petitioner, it cannot be said that non-issue of Transfer Certificate constitutes deliberate and wilful violation of the order of this Court. Hence, the Contempt Case is dismissed with liberty to the petitioner either to pay the amounts due to the respondent or to avail a fresh remedy, if he intends to dispute his liability.
