This writ application has been dismissed for default by order dated 28.2.2005 passed by Hon’ble Mr. Justice Barin Ghosh. 6. That the final withdrawal of the G.P.F. amount of late husband of the petitioner has been sanctioned to the petitioner vide memo no. 1275(3) dated 25.9.2004 under the signature of this deponent. 7. That so far the payment of arrear of salary for the period 10.8.1987 to 10.7.1988 is concerned, it is stated that the above mentioned period has been regularized by the department vide memo no. 638(3) dated 10.5.2004 under the signature of this deponent. 8. That so far the payment of arrear of salary for the period from February 1993 to June 1994 is concerned, it is stated that this period has been regularized vide memo no. 1343 dated 18.1.2004 issued under the signature of this deponent, as extraordinary leave without pay as the late husband of the petitioner was absent from his duty in an unauthorized manner.” In view of the above, it is clear that whatever could have been paid to the petitioner by way of the dues of her husband has already been paid. The dismissal of her another writ petition in fact for the same cause of action would stand in her way of pressing the same relief. 3 That being so, this writ petition is dismissed as having become infructuous. . kanchan (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
