Judgment

21/01/2022

This appeal arises out of an interim order dated 17.11.2021

passed by the learned Single Judge. The appellant-original

petitioner has challenged the wrong promotions in the writ

(2 of 3) [SAW-989/2021]

petition. On 06.05.2021 the learned Single Judge while issuing

notice in the writ petition had provided that the candidature of the

petitioner for promotion to IAS shall be considered treating senior

to those who are not in higher super time scale as on 31.12.2020.

Subsequently by an order dated 16.07.2021 the earlier interim

order passed on 06.05.2021 was vacated by the learned Single

Judge. Against this order the petitioner had preferred D.B. Special

Appeal Writ No.800/2021 which was withdrawn on 20.09.2021. In

the withdrawal order of course it was stated that the same was to

enable the appellant to seek appropriate remedy available to her

as per law. This however did not mean that the appellant could file

fresh application for stay in the same proceedings, that too

without any change of circumstances. On 25.10.2021 the learned

Single Judge once again dismissed the second stay petition. Yet

another attempt was made before the learned Single Judge to

obtain stay against the promotion by filing application No.8/2021.

This gave rise to the impugned order dated 17.11.2021. The

learned Single Judge has given detailed reasons and dismissed

this application.

We find that the appellant is making series of successive

attempts at stopping the promotions and thus wasting judicial

time. When once the stay was vacated by the learned Single

Judge and against such vacation of stay the appellant had

approached the Division Bench but withdrew the appeal, without

there being any change in circumstances, fresh attempts for

gaining stay against promotion would not succeed. This is in fact

third attempt and second appeal before the Division Bench.

(3 of 3) [SAW-989/2021]

The appeal is dismissed. The appellant shall note that she

has barely got away with order of cost.

                                   (SAMEER JAIN),J                                                (AKIL KURESHI),CJ
