     CORAM: HONOURABLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE
             and
             HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE HARISH KUMAR
     ORAL JUDGMENT
     (Per: HONOURABLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE)

      Date : 17-02-2026

                    This Letters Patent Appeal has been filed challenging

      the order dated 26.03.2025 passed in CWJC No. 4758 of 2025.

      On perusal of the impugned order, it appears that when the

      matter was taken up on 26.03.2025, the learned counsel for the

      petitioner,     appellant   herein,   produced      the    order   dated

      30.07.2009

passed by the Division Bench in LPA No. 460 of

2007 and other analogous cases and prayed for disposal of the Patna High Court L.P.A No.381 of 2025 dt.17-02-2026

case in similar manner.

2. After hearing the parties, the learned Single Judge

has passed the following order:-

"7. Having considered the rival submissions made on behalf of the parties, this Court, in light of the observation made by a Division Bench of this Court in LPA No. 460 of 2007, can only expect from the State to expedite the process of promotion of members of L.S.S. against the available vacancies for them in Sub-ordinate Education Service (hereinafter referred to as "S.E.S.") and complete the process as early as possible.

8. The executives have experience to run the government and this Court cannot interfere in any manner."

3. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the

appellant submitted that no such submission has been made by

the learned counsel for the petitioner in the writ petition to

dispose off the writ petition in similar manner, like the order

dated 30.07.2009 passed in LPA No. 460 of 2007 and other

analogous cases.

4. Law is well settled that if a party is of the view that

something has been wrongly recorded, it is open to him to

approach the very same Court, bringing it to the notice about Patna High Court L.P.A No.381 of 2025 dt.17-02-2026

such aspect while the matter is still fresh in the mind of the

Court and the said Court is empowered to correct the mistakes,

if any.

5. After going through the impugned order, we are of

the view that only a direction has been issued by the learned

Single Judge directing the State to expedite the process of

promotion of members of L.S.S. against the available vacancies

in Sub-ordinate Education Service and to complete the process

as early as possible.

6. After perusing the order and hearing the parties, we

are of the view that there is nothing perverse or palpable

unreasonableness in the impugned order. Therefore, within the

limited scope of appellate jurisdiction, we are not inclined to

interfere with the order under challenge. Accordingly, the

present LPA stands dismissed.
