BY SHRI.K.JAJU BABU BY SHRI.PAULSONS THOMAS THIS WRIT APPEAL HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 17/03/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: C.N.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR & BHABANI PRASAD RAY, JJ. ---------------------------------- WA No.346 of 2011 & C.M.Appln.No.207 of 2011 in W.A.No.346 of 2011 --------------------------------- Dated, this the 17th day of March, 2011 J U D G M E N T Ramachandran Nair, J. This belated Writ Appeal is filed against the direction issued by the learned Single Judge to give salary to the teacher who worked 5 years in the School. The case of the learned Government Pleader is that she is not on regular appointment and during litigation between her and the Government, she was allowed to serve as a teacher by this Court. Obviously the teacher was doing her work for which she deserves to be paid. In fact after rejecting the claim of the respondent for reglarisation the learned Single Judge ordered payment of wages for the five years the respondent worked. The Government has no case that she was sitting idle without employment. We also do not find any merit in the ground raised in support of the delay condonation petition. Consequently, the delay condonation petition as well as the Writ Appeal are dismissed. (C.N.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, JUDGE) (BHABANI PRASAD RAY, JUDGE) jg
