(Delivered by M. DURAISWAMY, J.)
Challenging the common order passed in W.P.Nos.43238 and 43239 of 2016, the respondents herein filed Writ Appeals in W.A.Nos.350 and 351 of 2017 and the Division Bench of this Court, by its judgment dated 20.07.2017, disposed of the Writ Appeals by directing the Joint Registrar of Co-operative Societies to hold de novo enquiry by giving proper notice to the parties concerned and proceed against the appellants, if they are found responsible on the proved charges levelled against them.
2.Pursuant to the judgment of the Division Bench of this Court in the Writ Appeals, the Joint Registrar of Co-operative Societies conducted enquiry and also passed an order on 27.05.2019. The present Writ Appeal has been filed by the 3rd respondent in W.P.No.43238 of 2016. Since the Division Bench of this Court has already considered the case of both sides and directed the Joint Registrar of Co-operative Societies to conduct de novo enquiry and that the Joint Registrar has also conducted enquiry and passed orders, the issue which has already been decided in W.A.Nos.350 and 351 of 2017 cannot be reagitated in the present Writ Appeal.
3.In such view of the matter, the relief sought for in the Writ Appeal has become infructuous. Accordingly, the Writ Appeal is dismissed as infructuous. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
