COMMON JUDGMENT
(Judgment of the Court was delivered by
PUSHPA SATHYANARAYANA,J.)
These Writ Appeals are preferred by the third party, who is not a
party to the writ proceedings in W.P(MD)Nos.8671 & 8672 of 2009,
dated 20.04.2011.
2.The appellant in both the Writ Appeals, viz.,
P.Kalayanasundaram, died on 15.02.2020.
3.These Writ Appeals were filed by the deceased appellant on
the ground that he was not impleaded as a party to the Writ Petitions.
His grievance was that the seniority which existed right from 1998
was sought to be unsettled, which is violative of Rule 35(f) of the
General Rules for Tamil Nadu State and Subordinate Service.
4.The learned Government Advocate appearing for the
respondents 2 to 4 submitted that subsequently, the seniority of the
appellant was fixed and he was promoted and now that the appellant
himself was dead, the question of considering his seniority does not
arise and submitted that nothing survives for adjudication in these
Writ Appeals.
