MR.P.N.SANTHOSH, GOVERNMENT PLEADER MR.P.C.SASIDHRAN, SC THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 03/09/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ------------------------- W.P.(C.) No.23801 of 2010 (A) --------------------------------- Dated, this the 3rd day of September, 2010 J U D G M E N T The petitioners are Law students. They have not passed Bachelor of Arts (Law), which only enables them to appear for the 10th semester examination. Despite the above position, according to the petitioners, in the previous years the University has been permitting students to appear for the 10th semester examination. Seeking continuance of the same practice in this year, they say, they have filed representations to the Vice Chancellor. In this writ petition, what they seek is a direction for consideration of the said representations. Although learned Standing Counsel for the University pointed out that the request of the petitioners is for a direction against the Regulations, still having regard to the alleged practice pointed out by the petitioners, I direct that if any representation is received, the same will be considered by the 3rd respondent in accordance with law, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within four weeks of production of a copy of this judgment. This writ petition is disposed of as above. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) jg
