IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Miscellaneous Jurisdiction Case No.1750 of 2010 Shankar Kumar Das @ Pankaj Kumar Rai Versus The State of Bihar & Ors. ---------------------------------- 3. 23.8.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner. This restoration application has been filed on 21st of April, 2010 for restoration of the connected writ case, vide CWJC No.8885 of 2005, which stood dismissed as not pressed vide order dated 24.7.2006. On perusal of the writ application it would appear that the petitioner had filed the aforesaid writ application claiming arrears of salary of his father, who was an employee in the Faleria Control Cell, Bhagalpur for the period 1.4.1994 to 31.3.1995 allegedly on the ground that his father had been made to retire one year prior to the actual date of retirement. In the opinion of the Court, the payment of arrears of salary will come only if the order of retirement is challenged. However, the same is not challenged in the writ application; more so the writ application has been filed after a long delay without any valid justification. In this view of the matter, I do not find any merit in the restoration application. The same is, accordingly, dismissed. PNM (Shailesh Kumar Sinha, J.)
