On 25.10.2004, this Court, while ordering Rule Nisi, directed the respondents to restore the electricity supply on condition that the petitioner deposits half of Rs.2,00,926/-. Now, the petitioner filed a Memo stating that subsequent thereto, the respondents carried out a review of the consumption deposit required for the year 2005-2006 on the basis of its consumption in the year 2004-2005 and the respondents issued a Memo dated 28.9.2005 determining that an amount of Rs.54,282/- is to be refunded to the petitioner and that amount would be adjusted in the subsequent bills. In the light of the said review and the stand taken by the respondents that the amount would be adjusted in the subsequent bills, this Court is of the view that the impugned order dated 20.6.2004 no more subsists and no further orders need to be passed in this writ petition. Hence, the writ petition is closed. No costs. _______________ 08.10.2007 bcj
