Item No.19
THE HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE HIMA KOHLI
AND
THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE B. VIJAYSEN REDDY
W.A.No.515 of 2020
JUDGMENT: (Per the Hon'ble the Chief Justice Hima Kohli)
1.
On the last date of hearing, a request for an adjournment was made by learned counsel for the appellant on the ground that learned Senior Advocate engaged by him was unavailable. Today, learned counsel states that he has been detected with COVID-19 infection and is unable to address arguments.
2. We may note that the order impugned in the present appeal has been passed on an interim application moved by the appellant in W.P.No.19485 of 2020 seeking stay of issuance of Election Notification in relation to Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation elections pending disposal of the writ petition, which was declined. As the elections are already over, there is no good reason for us to keep the present appeal alive that too when the interim relief prayed for by the appellant in the application virtually overlaps the main relief prayed for in the writ petition, which is still pending adjudication.
3. We therefore decline to entertain the present appeal. The same is disposed of along with the pending applications, if any.
