IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA LPA No.707 of 2007 WACHASPATI TIWARY Versus THE UNION OF INDIA & ORS ----------- For the Appellant : Mr. Sanjay Kumar Pandey, Advocate For the Respondents : Mr. Nirmal Kumar, Advocate ---------------- P R E S E N T Hon'ble the Chief Justice & Hon'ble Mr. Justice Kishore K. Mandal --------- Dated, the 3rd September, 2008. At the outset Mr. Sanjay Kumar Pandey, counsel for the appellant prayed for adjournment. However, Mr. Nirmal Kumar, counsel for the respondents opposed the prayer for adjournment and submitted that on earlier occasions also adjournment has been sought by the appellants. In view of stout opposition to the prayer for adjournment by the counsel for respondents, we asked the counsel for the appellant to read the impugned order and argue the appeal. 2. As a matter of fact from the averments made in the writ petition, it transpires that the petitioner was granted family pension until he attained the age of 25 years. Nothing has been shown to entitlement of the appellant to the family pension after having attained 25 years of age. 3. In so far as general provident fund is concerned, the employee himself, before his death, was paid the general provident - 2 - fund. 4. In this view of the matter, dismissal of the matter by the Single Judge cannot be faulted. Appeal does not deserve to be admitted. It is dismissed in limine. R. M. Lodha, CJ Kishore K.
