This writ petition is filed challenging an order dated 16.08.2001 passed by the Principal District Judge, setting aside surcharge order dated 25.08.1995.
2. The petitioner was called absent on earlier occasions as well as today, both initially as well as after having been passed over. The order sheet reveals several prior adjournments. The matter is thus taken up for hearing in the presence of Mr.Sivakumar, learned counsel for R3, who is heard.
3. The impugned order contains an unambiguous finding of fact that the surcharge order was passed contrary to the principle of natural justice and that no opportunity had been granted while passing the same.
4. In view of the aforesaid findings, I do not find any reason to interfere with the order impugned to. This writ petition is dismissed. No costs.
