JUDGMENT This writ petition is filed challenging Ext.P3 order passed by the Joint Registrar staying the interview for appointment to the post of Peon in the Society. 2. This Court, by interim order dated 6.2.2008 stayed the order and it was made clear that the selection and appointment on the basis of Ext.P1 will provisional and subject to further orders. 3. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Govt. Pleader. Ext.P3 is only an interim order. The name of the complainant is not mentioned in Ext.P3. It is stated therein that complaint is of a candidate. Now that the appointment is over and the appointed person has joined service, this Court need not go into the allegations raised in the writ petition. Evidently, the Society has taken pains to conduct the written test and the conduct of interview was only a last step for completing the selection process. Ext.P3 order preventing the Society from conducting the interview was not proper. Whatever that be, it is up to the Joint Registrar, if circumstances exist, to complete the enquiry with regard to the complaint wpc 4441/2008 2 after notice to the petitioner Society and the appointee. Ext.P3 is therefore set aside since it is submitted that already appointment has been made. The Joint Registrar, if so advised, can complete the enquiry as enjoined by law after complying with the principles of natural justice. The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs. (T.R. Ramachandran Nair, Judge.) kav/
