The State of Maharashtra & ors .Respondents Mr.Sudhir V. Sadavarte, Advocate, for the Applicant Mr.J.P.Kharge, APP, for Respondent No.1 - State CORAM : R.C.CHAVAN, J. DATE : 30TH SEPTEMBER, 2011 P.C. . Heard the learned Counsel for the respective parties. The applicant seeks revocation of Order dated 27th January, 2011 disposing of the Writ Petition as rendered infructuous. The petition questioned the suspension of the petitioner's license by the order dated 17th September, 2008 for a period of 30 days only. None appeared for the petitioner on 27th January, 2011. The learned APP pointed out that since 30 days period was over, & the petition had become infructuous. 2 APPW 437-2011 Therefore, it was disposed of. The learned Counsel for the applicant states that the State had filed an Affidavit of Yashwant Ragho Nerkar, Senior Inspector of Police in Criminal Writ Petition No.695 of 2011, whereby the petitioner had challenged subsequent order of the licensing authority. In that Affidavit in para 8, it was stated that during the period of suspension the petitioner had kept his establishment open during the period of suspension. This was possibly the cause for further action by the police. The learned APP had not stated before the Court that the petitioner had, in fact, closed his establishment and therefore, the petition had become infructuous. She had merely stated that since 30 days period was over, the petition had become infructuous. Therefore, there was no contradiction in the stand taken by the learned APP and the statement made by Sr.P.I. in his affidavit on 27th January, 2011. No case is made out. 3 APPW 437-2011 2. Criminal Application stands rejected. (R.C.CHAVAN, J.)
