The challenge in this writ petition is against the interference of the Joint Registrar with an order of suspension. The employee, viz., the second respondent, has already been dismissed from service. The issue herein has thus become stale. Hence, this writ petition is dismissed as infructuous. Sd/- THOTTATHIL B.RADHAKRISHNAN, Judge kkb.
