None for Petitioner. Mr.A.S.Gadkari, A.P.P. for Respondents. ...... CORAM: A.M.KHANWILKAR, J. CORAM: A.M.KHANWILKAR, J. CORAM: A.M.KHANWILKAR, J. MARCH 1, 2005. MARCH 1, 2005. MARCH 1, 2005. P.C. P.C. P.C. 1. Learned A.P.P. informs me that this Petition has become infructuous as the Petitioner has already been released on 30th December 2004. Perhaps, that is the reason why no appearance is made on behalf of the Petitioner. Even if the Petition has become infructuous, that does not absolve the Advocate on record from appearing before the Court when the matter is notified. In fact, it is the duty of the Advocate to inform the : 2 : Court that the matter has become infructuous. This only indicates the casual attitude of the Advocate on record. Dismissed for default. A.M.KHANWILKAR, J.
