IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD (Special Original Jurisdiction) PRESENT THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION NO.1101 OF 2000 DATED:29.07.2010 Between: T. Venkatanarayana … Petitioner And The Cooperative Sub-Registrar/ Arbitration and Executions, Girijan Coop. Corporation Ltd., Visakhapatnam, and another and another … Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION NO.1101 OF 2000 ORDER: The order under challenge in this writ petition is the summons issued by first respondent in A.R.C. No.42/99-2000, dt.1.12.1999, as arbitrary, illegal and without jurisdiction. It is the petitioner’s case that, since he is an employee of the second respondent and the Managing Director of the second respondent has already dropped disciplinary action against the petitioner for which a charge memo was issued earlier, the first respondent does not have jurisdiction to entertain such disputes under Section 61 of the Andhra Pradesh Cooperative Societies Act, 1964, and issue summons to him. At the stage of admission this Court, by order in W.P.M.P. No.1386 of 2000, dt.28.1.2000, granted interim stay of operation of the impugned order for two weeks. The said interim order was not extended thereafter. Sri N. Sridhar Reddy, learned Standing Counsel appearing on behalf of second respondent, would submit that A.R.C. No.42/99-2000 was allowed in the year 2008 and that the said order has attained finality in as much as the petitioner has not preferred any appeal thereagainst. Since final orders have already been passed, by the first respondent in the A.R.C., I see no reason to now examine the contentions raised in challenge to the summons issued to the petitioner to appear and put forth his objections to the dispute raised by the Senior Manager of the second respondent before the Cooperative Sub-Registrar. In the light of the subsequent event of the A.R.C. itself having been allowed, the cause in the writ petition does not necessitate adjudication. The Writ Petition is, accordingly, dismissed as infructuous. No costs. _______________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J 29.07.2010 bnr
