THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY CONTEMPT CASE No.186 of 2011 ORDER: This Contempt Case is filed under Sections 10 to 12 of the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971, alleging that the respondents have violated the directions issued by this Court in order, dated 01.04.2010, passed in Writ Petition No.7057 of 2010. The petitioner was working as a driver on contract basis in the Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation in Visakhapatnam. On the ground that he drove vehicle bearing No.AP11 Z 4269 on the route Seeleru to Visakhapatnam on 27.11.2007 and caused an accident by his rash and negligent driving, he was removed from service. Removal order was questioned in the writ petition, in which, this Court by order, dated 01.04.2010, on the ground that the order of removal was not preceded by enquiry, ordered reinstatement of the petitioner into service by giving liberty to the respondents to conduct enquiry and pass orders. When the matter is taken up today, it is submitted that pursuant to the order passed by this Court on 01.04.2010, the respondents have reinstated the petitioner into service and he is working. To that effect, proceedings bearing No.DS(P)/P3/785(3)/2010-RM/VSP, dated 03.06.2011, were issued by the respondents and the same are placed on record. Though there was some delay on the part of the respondents, as much as the respondents have already complied with the directions issued by this Court by reinstating the petitioner into service, I am of the opinion that it is not a fit case to proceed against the respondents under the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971. The Contempt Case is accordingly closed. ______________________ R.SUBHASH REDDY, J 10th JUNE, 2011. kvni
