Case brief
AI extract
What is this about?
The Gauhati High Court closed a contempt case instituted in 2017 for willful disobedience of an order directing the Deputy Commissioner to consider a compassionate appointment application. The court held that more than 11 years had passed since the petitioner's father died, so the element of compassion was lost, and since the original order was seven years old, the petitioner had lost interest.
What did the court decide?
The contempt case stands closed.
