Pursuant to the selection process initiated in 2007 Patna High Court LPA No.1655 of 2011 (3) dt.21-11-2011 2 / 2 2 wherein the appellant chose not to participate, the appellant seeks a right to be considered for appointment. The claim has been rejected on the grounds of delay and laches and also barred by principles of constructive res-judicata. In the same subject matter, the appellant had earlier filed CWJC No. 3813 of 2010 which she withdrew. The Appeal is devoid of any merit. Hence it is dismissed in limine. Sujit/- (R.M.
