Case (C).No.1590 OF 2008-S - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dated this the 4th day of November, 2008 JUDGMENT H.L.DATTU, C.J. The appellant in W.A.No.2687/2007 is the complainant in this contempt petition. (2) This Court by order dated 14th November, 2007 has disposed of the appeal as under:- “All the reliefs prayed for by the appellant, have been granted. If the appellant has got any further claim, she can approach the authorities concerned. With the above observation, the writ appeal is dismissed”. (3) Alleging that respondents in the contempt petition have not complied with the aforesaid order, the complainant has filed this Contempt Petition. (4) We have carefully perused the order passed by the Division Bench of this Court while disposing of W.A.No.2687/2007 dated 14th November, 2007. In the said order, the learned Judges have only recorded the statement of the learned Government Advocate that whatever amounts that were due to the appellant have already been paid. The Court has further stated that if the appellant has got any 2 COC.NO.1590/08 further grievance, she has to approach the appropriate authorities for appropriate reliefs. If for any reason the complainant is of the view that the statement made by the learned Government Pleader is incorrect and based on that if this court has disposed of the appeal, the contempt petition is not the remedy. Secondly, the court has only stated that if the appellant has any other claim, she has to approach the authorities. Therefore we say there is neither any positive direction nor any order which mandates the respondents to comply any directions issued by this Court. (5) In view of the above, in our opinion, there is neither deliberate nor willful disobedience of the orders and directions issued by this Court while disposing of the writ appeal. (6) Therefore, we decline to entertain this Contempt Petition. Ordered accordingly. (H.L.DATTU) CHIEF JUSTICE (A.K.BASHEER) JUDGE cl/dk
