The stage carriage owned by the third respondent is KL-11 D 6669. On the basis of Ext.P2 judgment, Ext.P3 temporary permit was granted in favour of the third respondent for the period from 13.7.2009 to 12.11.2009. The petitioner prays for quashing Ext.P3 temporary permit as well. Other reliefs are also prayed for in the Writ Petition which relate to the operation of the stage carriage service on a particular route. All the reliefs prayed for in the Writ Petition would not survive after the period fixed in Ext.P3 temporary permit. The Writ Petition has, therefore, become infructuous since the period of Ext.P3 is over. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is dismissed as infructuous. K.T.SANKARAN, JUDGE csl
