J U D G M E N T This writ petition is filed by an employee, who resigned from the services of the 2nd respondent-Bank, for a direction to the respondents to pay to him the gratuity due to him under the Payment of Gratuity Act. 2. It is not disputed that the petitioner is entitled to get gratuity under the Payment of Gratuity Act. In view of that fact, this Court had passed an interim order on 5-9-2005 directing the 2nd respondent-Bank to pay to the petitioner gratuity as provided under the Payment of Gratuity Act and it is admitted before me that the same has been paid. Since the entitlement of the petitioner for the amount is not in dispute and the same has already been paid, no further orders are necessary in this writ petition. Accordingly, the same is closed.
