CASE (C) NO. 1497 OF 2008 -------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 22nd October, 2008 JUDGMENT This Contempt of Court Case is filed alleging that the respondents have not complied with the directions issued by this Court while disposing of the Writ Petition. The petitioner relies on Ext.A3 to contend that the University having passed Ext.A3 resolution, it is clear that the respondents are not going to comply with the directions within the time stipulated in the judgment. 2. Learned Standing Counsel appearing for the University submits that as per the judgment respondents 2 and 3 were directed to proceed with the selection to the various posts notified as per Ext.P1 notification as expeditiously as possible and, at any rate, within a period of three months. The period of three months would be over by 5.11.2008. The Contempt of Court Case was filed on 16.10.2008. The Standing Counsel submits that the Contempt of Court Case is premature. CONTEMPT CASE (C) NO.1497 OF 2008 :: 2 :: Since the period stipulated in the judgment is not over, to my mind, the petitioner is not entitled to move the Contempt Case at present. The Contempt of Court Case is accordingly closed with liberty to the petitioner to move afresh in case it becomes necessary. (K.T.SANKARAN) Judge ahz/
