IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA
CWJC No.10032 of 2009
DR.DHARAM SHEELA PRASAD & ORS
Versus
THE CHANCELLOR OF UNIVERSITY OF BIHAR & ORS
-----------
08 01.09.2010 Today is the 5th date on which Sri K.K. Pathak, in spite of
direct positive order of this Court to appear, has failed to appear.
Mr. Lalit Kishore, AAG-III states that inspite of his
persuasion and that of the learned Advocate General Sri Pathak refuses to
change his defiant attitude. This Court then requested the learned
Advocate General to assist the Court in the matter. Learned Advocate
General appeared and submitted that he was aware of the day to day
development of this case in relation to Sri Pathak and had called him to
his Chambers in the High Court telling him to obey the orders of this
Court to appear in person still he has not changed his defiant attitude. In
such a situation, both learned Advocate General and Additional Advocate
General-III submit that they were not in a position to defend the action
and the defiant attitude of the Officer and it is now open to the Court to
take necessary steps for securing his presence in the Court, which now
could not be opposed.
Orders reserved for consideration.
Trivedi/ (Navaniti Prasad Singh, J.)
