Mr. Junaid Ahmed, Advocate for the petitioner, Mr. J.B. Jaiswal, APP for the respondents/State. .......... CORAM : K.J. ROHEE AND A.P. BHANGALE, JJ DATED : AUGUST 14, 2008 1. Heard the learned counsel for the parties. 2. The petitioner was convicted by judgment dated 21.6.1988 for the offence punishable under section 302 r/w 34 of the Indian Penal Code and is this a life convict. According to him, furlough leave was granted to him from time to time. However, on last occasion, when he applied for furlough on 16.4.2007, the said application was rejected by the Competent Authority by order dated 21.7.2008. He, 2 therefore, prayed that the application was not decided and hence on 7.7.2008 he moved the present writ petition for directing the Competent Authority to decide his application. 3. It seems that during the pendency of the petition, the Competent Authority decided his application by order dated 21.7.2008 rejecting the application of the petitioner. After rejection of his application the petitioner has not amended the petition. The petition has become infructuous. The same is, therefore, dismissed. JUDGE JUDGE Gulande
