THOTTATHIL B. RADHAKRISHNAN, J. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = WP(C).No.20554 of 2008-V = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 14th day of July, 2008. JUDGMENT The petitioner is claiming that he is entitled to regularization of services on account of his different engagements as Watchman of the Bodinayackanur Office of the second respondent, an apex co-operative society. Though this Court had directed consideration of his representation, the Managing Director of the second respondent has issued Ext.P5 rejecting the petitioner's request for regularization giving reasons for such refusal. The issue in hand raises mixed questions of facts and law and still further, it is an issue for the resolution of which the petitioner has adequate alternate remedies. The writ petition is hence dismissed without prejudice to such rights. THOTTATHIL B. RADHAKRISHNAN, Sha/140708 JUDGE.
