Both the writ petitions involve the same issue and they are taken up together and disposed of by a common order. 2. The writ petitions involve the issue of resumption of seniority positions in the list prepared by the respondent-management. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner states that since the time Civil Writ Petition No.19095 of 1991 - 2 - when the writ petitions were filed, several years have passed and he is unable to secure instructions from the petitioners as to the present status. I do not propose to go into the merits of the claim in view of the statement made by the counsel that the controversy that was raised in the writ petitions would not require any further consideration. With no new inputs given as to the present position of their employment, the writ petitions are dismissed. There shall be however no directions as to costs. (K.KANNAN) JUDGE 04.05.2010 sanjeev
