THESE WRIT APPEALS COMING ON FOR ORDERS, THIS DAY, THE ACTING CHIEF JUSTICE DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
JUDGMENT Ag.CJ (Oral):
1. These writ appeals are directed against the order of a learned Single Judge dated 13.11.2017 dismissing the petitions of the appellants in W.P.Nos.49623-49637/2017.
2. We have heard learned counsel appearing for the appellants and perused the impugned order. It is relevant to refer to the following reasoning of the learned Single Judge in dismissing the aforesaid writ petitions:
“4. It is noted from Annexure-A, notification that first respondent-Law University has permitted the law students to complete three year Law Course initially in six years’ time and thereafter, by permitting two more attempts i.e., in seven years’ time. If petitioners have not been able to complete their Course, despite extention of time granted by the University, this Court cannot permit the petitioners to appear for the examinations contrary to the University rules or regulations by exercising discretion under Article 226 of the Constitution of India.”
3. We find no error in the order of the learned Single Judge to warrant interference. The writ appeals are accordingly dismissed. In view of dismissal of the writ appeals, I.A.Nos.1 & 2/2017 do not survive for consideration; they stand disposed of accordingly.
Appeals dismissed.
