IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA MJC No.2675 of 2006 DR.MANIPAL CHAUDHARY Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ANR ----------- For the Petitioner : Mr. Ramesh Singh, Adv. For the Respondent : - --------------- P R E S E N T Hon'ble the Chief Justice & Hon'ble Mr. Justice Kishore K. Mandal ---------- Dated, the 9th July, 2008. We heard the counsel for the petitioner. 2. The contempt alleged is of the order dated 9.5.2005. The said order reads thus: “Petitioner is aggrieved by the two reports, one submitted by Respondents 4, 6 and 7 and other by Respondent no. 5. On the basis of those reports, till date no order adverse to the interest of the petitioner has yet been passed, as such, in the opinion of this Court, this writ application is not maintainable. Petitioner, however, contends that the Respondent nos. 4,6 and 7 as also respondent no. 5 are not competent to make a report against the petitioner. Let this aspect of the matter also be considered by the disciplinary authority, Respondent no.2.” 3. We are afraid, the application for contempt is wholly misconceived. As a matter of fact, the writ petition filed by the petitioner has been held to be not maintainable. When it was contended that respondent nos. 4, 6 and 7 as also respondent no. 5 were not competent to make a report against the petitioner, the court - 2 - observed that this aspect shall be considered by the disciplinary authority. 4. In our considered view, no case for contempt is made out. MJC is dismissed accordingly. R. M. Lodha, CJ Kishore K. Mandal, J Anil/
