IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) FRIDAY, THE TWENTY FIRST DAY OF NOVEMBER, TWO THOUSAND EIGHT ONLY PRESENT: THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.30664 of 1998 Between: S. Md. Ayub Saheb … Petitioner AND The Divisional Cooperative Officer, Hindupur, Anantapur District & others. … Respondents Counsel for the petitioner : Sri T. Balaji Counsel for the respondents: GP for Cooperation This Court made the following: THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.30664 of 1998 ORDER:- This writ petition is filed for a Writ of Mandamus to declare the action of respondent No.1 in not passing order on the appeal filed by the petitioner against proceedings dated 06.07.1998 of respondent No.4, whereby the petitioner was placed under suspension, as illegal and arbitrary. At the hearing, Sri T. Balaji, learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that subsequent to the filing of this writ petition, the petitioner was dismissed from service, which was later withdrawn by order dated 24.04.1999. He, however, submitted that though respondent No.4 ordered for payment of salary and extension of all other attendant benefits, so far no payment has been made. The scope of this writ petition is mainly limited to the inaction of respondent No.1 in disposing of the appeal filed against the order of suspension of the petitioner. The subsequent events culminating in dismissal of the petitioner and his subsequent reinstatement rendered the cause in this writ petition ceasing to exist. If the petitioner is not paid the arrears of salary and other benefits arising on account of his reinstatement following his dismissal from service, that gives rise to a fresh cause of action to the petitioner. Therefore, no relief in this writ petition can be granted. The petitioner is left free to pursue his remedies for recovery of salary and other benefits consequent of his restoration to service. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. As a sequel to disposal of the writ petition, WPMP.No.37510 of 1998 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous. ____________________________ C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY, J Date: 21.11.2008 ES
