THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU W.P.No.12959 of 1997 ORAL ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking a Mandamus directing the respondents to confirm the petitioner in the post of Assistant Depot Clerk (O.D.) and declaring the action of the respondents in orally directing the petitioner to work as Driver instead of Assistant Depot Clerk as arbitrary and illegal. Heard both sides. While admitting the writ petition on 24.6.1997, this Court directed the respondents to continue the petitioner as Assistant Depot Clerk until further orders. The said interim order is subsisting as of now. Meanwhile, it appears petitioner has attained the age of superannuation and has already been retired. In view of the same, no cause survives for adjudication at this length of time, therefore, the writ petition is closed in the light of interim order passed by this Court in W.P.M.P.No.15582 of 1997 dated 24.6.1997. No order as to costs. ______________ C.V.RAMULU, J Date: 3.4.2007 DA THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU W.P.No.12959 of 1997 3.4.2007 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.RAMULU W.P.No.12959 of 1997 Date: 3rd April, 2007 Between: P.Venuopal ..
