1 CP 21 of 2010 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE, BENCH AT AURANGABAD CONTEMPT PETITION NO. 21 OF 2010 in Writ Petition No. 4549 of 2009 Fr. Peter s/o Thamaji Amolik Petitioner V E R S U S 1. Bishop Edwin Colaco 2. Mrs. Reetha Pylee 3. The Education Officer (Secondary) Zilla Parishad, Aurangabad Respondents Mr. R.V. Gore, Advocate for the petitioner Mr. S.V. Advant, Advocate for respondent No. 2 Mr. S.D. Kaldate, AGP for respondent No. 3 / State CORAM : A.V. NIRGUDE, J. DATED : 4th February, 2011 PER COURT : 1. Heard. This Contempt Petitioin deserves to be dismissed. The facts leading to this Contempt Petition are as under : 2. The petitioner was suspended by the respondent / Management on account of certain complaint made against him. The respondent / Management initiated inquiry against him. But, since the inquiry was not conducted expeditiously, the petitioner approached this Court in Writ Petition No. 4549 of 2009, and, on 12th October, 2010, this Court set aside the order placing the petitioner under suspension and directed the 2 CP 21 of 2010 Management to allow the petitioner to work regularly. However, the Management delayed implementation of this order, and, in the mean time, within 10 days, they completed the inquiry and terminated the petitioner's service. This petition is filed with a grievance that the Management and the Education Officer, in collusion, frustrated the order passed by this Court by purposely avoiding to implement the order passed by the Court. I am not convinced that this is a fit case for taking action against the respondents for their so called disobedience of the order passed by this Court. No doubt, the order passed by this Court was not implemented quickly enough, but, in the mean time, within 10 days, the respondent / Management completed the pending inquiry. Due to the termination of the petitioner, the effect of the order passed by this Court also come to an end. In effect, the order passed by this Court was in force between 12th October, 2010 till 22nd October, 2010. The violation is of minor nature and I am not inclined to initiate any action against the respondents for the same. Shri. S.V. Advant, the learned Advocate appearing for the Management stated that the Management will pay the salary of 10 days (12th October, 2010 till 22nd October, 2010) to the petitioner within four weeks from today. In view of this, Contempt Petition stands dismissed. ( A.V. NIRGUDE, J. ) SRM/ 3 CP 21 of 2010
