SRINIVASAMURTHY The Court made the following : ORAL JUDGMENT: ( per Hon’ble The Chief Justice ) ….. 1. Appeal is against the order of the learned single Judge dismissing the writ petition of the appellant on the ground that in such like contractual matters where facts are highly disputed, it is but appropriate to relegate the writ petitioner to the remedy of approaching the appropriate Civil Court for obtaining decree for the amount of legal fee claimed by the appellant. 2. The respondent’s case is that whatever amount of legal fee is due and payable as per the terms of appointment order has been paid and no further amount is payable, whereas the appellant claims that fee has not correctly been worked out and that no fee is paid to him. 3. Being a disputed question of fact, learned single Judge was justified in dismissing the writ petition relegating the petitioner – appellant to the remedy of civil suit, which is the only remedy which must be invoked by the appellant. Accordingly the writ appeal is dismissed. No costs. ____________________ DEVINDER GUPTA. C.J., _______________________ B. SESHASAYANA REDDY. J., Dated: 29.03.2005. VRK. To 1.
