Case brief
What is this about?
Patna High Court, CWJC No.6535 of 2016, decided 29-04-2025 by Dr. Justice Anshuman (single Judge). Petitioner Sarwan Kumar challenged, by writ petition, only the appellate order No.104 of 2014 (Memo No.533 dated 18.07.2014) passed by the D.I.G., North Zone, Muzaffarpur, in disciplinary proceedings in which the original order (Memo No.1174 dated 08.05.2013, Commandant BMP-6, Disciplinary Authority) and the revisional order (dated 27.11.2014, DGP, Memo No.5186 dated 01.12.2014) remained unchallenged. Accepting the State's objection that the appellate order could not be challenged without challenging the original and revisional orders, the Court held the writ defective, dismissed the petition, and granted liberty to file a fresh writ petition challenging all orders. No statute or precedent was cited or discussed.
What did the court decide?
Liberty granted to the petitioner to file a fresh writ petition challenging all the orders.
