LPA 2/2002 BEFORE HON’BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE MR. MADAN B. LOKUR HON’BLE MR.JUSTICE B.P. KATAKEY HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE A.K. GOSWAMI In this case the challenge is to an order dated 19-12-2001 passed by a learned S ingle Judge in Contempt Case(C) No.316/2001. By the impugned order notice was is sued to the alleged contemnors/respondents to show cause why contempt of Court p roceedings be not initiated against them. It is not clear why the matter has been referred to the Full Bench altho ugh it appears from the order dated 14-3-2002 passed in MC No.33/2002 that one o f the issues raised was whether a Letters Patent Appeal (LPA) would be maintaina ble against the order issuing notice in the contempt case. We are of the view that no useful purpose would be served by keeping thi s petition pending in this Court particularly since it is against an interim ord er which may perhaps have lost its efficacy with the passage of time. Under the circumstances the case papers be sent back to the Permanent Be nch at Imphal for the matter to be heard by an appropriate Division Bench. The notice issued to the various Advocates General of various States and the various Bar Associations is discharged.
