IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Letters Patent Appeal No.853 of 2010 In (CIVIL WRIT JURISDICTION CASE 15365/2006) 1. Sarjan Singh S/O Late Dhanraj Singh R/O Vill.- Janak Puriya, P.S.- Chauri, Distt.- Bhojpur .. Appellant. Versus 1. The State Of Bihar 2. The Collector-Cum-Chairman, District Compassionate Committee, Muzaffarpur 3. The Executive Engineer, Irrigation, Mechanical Division, Muzaffarpur ..Respondents. ---------------------------------- 3. 24.11.2011 Heard the parties and perused the order of the writ Court. Compassionate appointment has been denied to the appellant on the ground that he was disqualified for Government job as he had two living wives. Learned counsel for the appellant submits that such disqualification is being inferred on account of provisions in the Bihar Government Servant Conduct Rules, 1976 which cannot be applied to the appellant so long as he is not given appointment on the post under the Government. On the face of it, the argument appears to be attractive but it is a settled proposition of law that no writ should be issued which will lead to violation of law. The moment we direct for appointment of the appellant and the order is carried out, he will be liable to be proceeded for misconduct. In our considered view, compassionate 2 appointment has rightly been denied to the appellant. We find no merit in this appeal. It is, accordingly, dismissed.
