WP(C) 6039/2010 BEFORE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE HRISHIKESH ROY The petitioner a law student is aggrieved by the decision of the Gauhati Univers ity Authorities denying her permission to appear in the Labour Law paper (Paper- VII) of the LL.B. Intermediate Examination scheduled to be hold on 24.11.2010. 2. The petitioner appeared in her first LL.B. Preliminary Examination in th e year 2005 but could not clear her preliminary examination in the said year. In 2006 she cleared her preliminary examination and appeared in her first LL.B. In termediate Examination held in the year 2006 where she was unsuccessful. In the next year i.e. in 2007 also, she failed in her Intermediate Examination. In the following year i.e. in 2008, she was unsuccessful in 3 papers i.e . Paper-III, Paper-IV and Paper-VII, but she cleared two of those papers subsequ ently in 2009. However she failed to clear the paper of Labour Low i.e. Paper-VI I. She appeared in LL.B. Final Examination in the year 2008 but failed. In 2009 she appeared again but the result of her final examination is withheld as she is yet to clear the seventh paper of her Intermediate Examination. 3. Under Clause XIV of the Regulation and Syllabus of LL.B. Course notified by the Gauhati University, a candidate is required to clear the LL.B. Degree ex amination within 5 years from the date of his first due examination in LL.B. and not more than 4 chances are provided to clear each part of the LL.B. examinatio n. 4. In this case, the petitioner has already availed all 4 permissible chanc es to clear the 7th paper of her Intermediate Examination and therefore she is n ot entitled to avail of an additional, chance to clear the said paper. 5. For the forgoing reasons, I do not find any justification to direct the University Authority to permit the petitioner to avail of a fifth chance to clea r the 7th paper of her Intermediate curriculum. 6. The petition is accordingly found devoid of merit and is dismissed.
