IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.17759 of 2011 Raj Kishore Singh SON OF LATE SHIVDHARI SINGH RESIDENT OF CHHABILATAR, P.O. LEMUANBAD VIA PENDARAK, P.S. PANDARAK, DISTRICT PATNA RETIRED HEAD CLERK, FLOOD CONTROL AND DESIGN CIRCLE, ANISHABAD, PATNA. Versus The State Of Bihar & Ors ---------------------------------- 2 22/11/2011 Since a writ of mandamus cannot be issued for enforcement of an earlier mandamus, therefore, the present writ application is obviously ill advised. This fact is being noted in the background to an earlier order passed by this Court contained in annexure-1 where for similar relief a direction was given upon the respondents to consider representation of the petitioner and decide the same within a time frame. The concerned respondent is supposed to be the Chief Engineer. If there is failure on the part of the Chief Engineer to decide the claim of the petitioner, remedy for the petitioner would be in filing of a contempt application and not yet another writ application. This writ application is dismissed. - 2 - Let the petitioner take appropriate remedy in an appropriate proceeding. AMIN/ (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
