IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.8951 of 2005 KALI RAM Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 3. 29.10.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. From the order of this Court dated 1.5.2009, it is apparent that the claims of the petitioner are not denied. Only part payment of the dues appears to have been made. Once the State has acknowledged the claims of the petitioner in its counter affidavit in a proceeding before this Court, all that remains is full compliance as noticed in the earlier order. Paucity of funds etc. can be no defence in a case where the State has taken a particular stand before this Court. The writ application is disposed with directions to ensure that the balance legitimate dues of the petitioner are paid positively within a period of three months from the date of receipt and/or production of a copy of this order, failing which the petitioner shall be legitimately entitled to demand interest on the same.
