Both the appeals arise out of a common order dated 20th

January, 2014, passed by the learned single Judge, who after hearing

the parties decided to dismiss the writ applications primarily on the

ground that for the same said relief for appointment on the posts, in

what is known as Rai Bahadur Tunki Shah Government

Homeopathic Medical College and Hospital, established in

Muzaffarpur, has already been adjudicated not once but twice right

up-till the Hon''ble Apex Court which refused to grant any relief in

the previous rounds of litigations. The learned single Judge could not

ignore or override or re-interpret those orders to find a via media to

grant relief to these appellants. The learned single Judge has

observed as under:

"Learned counsel for the petitioners is not in a position to show that any persons appointed on or after 29.1.1981 was taken over by the State Government. Those persons 33 and 81 in number were appointed before 29.1.1981 which was recognized by the Division Bench and there was dispute in between two classes of the same group. As the Government was creating dispute which the Court has refused to accept the stand of the Government.

This Court is not inclined to accept the plea of the petitioners as they have already tested their cases up-to Hon''ble Supreme Court. Now this Court cannot reopen the issue which has been dealt with and settled in the judgment passed by this Court and Hon''ble Supreme Court.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that in view of the observation given by the Hon''ble Supreme Court their cases ought to have been considered by the Government and has placed reliance on the order dated 2.3.2012 passed in C.W.J.C. No.12742 of 2011.

It is a fact that the petitioners have already crossed the age of 50 and they have never approached the Hon''ble Supreme Court making a grievance that the Government has not followed by the observation of that Court. However, if any fresh appointment is made their cases would be considered but this Court is not given any opinion or direction or any observation that it will be treated that they would be appointed by the Government subject to suitability to the post."

2.

After having heard learned counsel for the appellants,

we are not impressed by the line of argument being pressed now that

there is infirmity in the order of the learned single Judge in

dismissing the writ application and not allowing relief.

3.

The Court is of the opinion that via media are being

sought to be found to overcome the binding effect of the earlier

adjudications made by the High Court and affirmed by the Hon''ble

Supreme Court.

4.

Both the appeals, therefore, deserve to be dismissed as

they are totally devoid of merit.
