JUDGMENT The petitioner herein is working as H.S.A. in St. George's High School, Thozhiyoor which is an aided school. The petitioner was initially appointed as U.P.S.A. from 13.11.1985 under the same management and the promotion was effected on 14.6.1999. Again, she was reverted on 15.7.2007 due to division fall and later she was promoted as H.S.A. on 1.9.2008 and at present she is working as H.S.A. 2. The District Educational Officer had approved her appointment as U.P.S.A. and the first promotion as H.S.A. The approval for the present appointment has been refused by the District Educational Officer as per Ext.P1. One of the points raised in Ext.P1 order is that there was an injunction order against making appointments under the management as per I.A.No.1611/2008 in O.S.No.431/2008 of Munsiff's Court, Chavakkad. Already, the Manager has filed a appeal against Ext.P1, before the Deputy Director of Education, by Ext.P2. It is pointed out by the learned counsel for the petitioner that the order of injunction has been stayed by the Additional District Court, in favour of the Manager, as per Ext.P3 order in wpc 18683/2009 2 I.A.No.2797/2008 in C.M.A.No.122/2008. All that the petitioner requires is an expeditious disposal of Ext.P2 appeal pending before the Deputy Director of Education. 3. There will be a direction to the second respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P2 after hearing the petitioner and the Manager, within six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs. (T.R. Ramachandran Nair, Judge.) kav/
