THE UNIVERSITY OF KERALA, REPRESENTED BY REGISTRAR, THIRUVANANTHAPURAM. 2. DEPUTY REGISTRAR (ADMINISTRATION I), UNIVERSITY OF KERALA, THIRUVANANTHAPURAM. ADV. SRI.M.RAJAGOPALAN NAIR, SC, KERALA UTY. FOR R1 & R2 THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 03/11/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. ============== W.P.(C) NO. 31539 OF 2008 (D) ==================== Dated this the 3rd day of November, 2008 J U D G M E N T The claim raised in this writ petition is regarding the appointment to the post of Store Keeper under the 1st respondent University, for which Ext.P1 notification has been issued inviting applications. Petitioner has submitted his application in response to Ext.P1 and according to the petitioner, in the past, this post has been filled up on the basis of seniority of the candidates, and that this time, when the vacancy which arose on 31/10/2008 is filled up, the University might depart from the said rule and fill up the post. It is with this grievance, the writ petition is filed. 2. First of all, the writ petition is premature in so far as the University has not, as at present, filled up the post departing from the rule as apprehended by the petitioner. Secondly, the standing counsel for the University has submitted that the University has received applications made in response to Ext.P1 and has not proceeded any further. For both these reasons, as at present, there is no reason for the petitioner to file this writ petition. Therefore, leaving open the contentions, the writ petition is closed as premature. ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE Rp
