THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA W.P. No. 26305 of 1998 Oral order: On 29.08.2007, none appeared for the petitioner, and as such, the writ petition was directed to be listed next week under the caption “for orders”. Today, even though the writ petition is listed under the caption “for orders”, and despite passing over the matter to 02.15 p.m., neither the petitioner nor his counsel are present, nor is there any representation made on their behalf. The learned Standing Counsel for the respondents submitted that by lapse of time, the cause in the writ petition has become infructuous. Recording the said submission, the writ petition is dismissed as having become infructuous. No costs. _________________ N.V. RAMANA, J. Dated: 12th September, 2007. KSR
