HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE HARISH KUMAR ORAL ORDER

¶17

(Per: HONOURABLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE)

¶18

3 09-04-2024 The appellant is concerned with an interim order

¶19

which directed the 5^th respondent’s joining to be accepted and

¶20

Patna High Court L.P.A No.318 of 2024(3) dt.09-04-2024 2/3

¶21

continue him, subject to the result of the writ petition. The appellant is the writ petitioner, who had challenged the selection of the 5^th respondent before the learned Single Judge.

¶22

The learned Counsel appearing for the appellant would submit that in effect the interim order would be final disposal of the writ petition and the 5^th respondent was directed to be appointed, in a writ petition filed by the appellant.

¶23

The learned Senior Counsel appearing for the private respondent however, would submit that CWJC No. 10339 of 2022 is posted on the 16.04.2024 for hearing as the first item.

¶24

We do not think that the interim order has disposed of the writ petition as such. The 5^th respondent’s joining was directed to be accepted only since the Education Department had taken steps in furtherance of the selection made.

¶25

The grievance of the petitioner is also with respect to the marks awarded for experience to the 5^th respondent, which is also said to have been reviewed on the orders of another learned Single Judge.

¶26

Having heard the parties, we are not convinced that the impugned order disposes of the writ petition. The learned Single Judge has only directed joining of the 5^th respondent to

¶27

Patna High Court L.P.A No.318 of 2024(3) dt.09-04-2024 3/3

¶28

be accepted since, already the Education Department had issued such orders.

¶29

Definitely the joining would be subject to the final result of the writ petition and since the matter is posted peremptorily on 16.04.2024, we would only request the learned Single Judge to hear the matter on 16.04.2024 itself.

¶30

The Letters Patent Appeal stands closed, leaving all contentions open before the learned Single Judge.
