I.Sam Jegan vs The Secretary

Madras High Court|27 January, 2017

JUDGMENT / ORDER

(Order of the Court was made by M.M.SUNDRESH, J.) The petitioner, who is a practising advocate, has filed this writ petition, seeking a direction to the first respondent to look into the representation made on 11.04.2016, which is directed against the resolution passed against him by the local bar.
2.Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner submits that the resolution is factually incorrect and it is motivated.
3.We are not inclined to entertain this writ petition. Unless and until there is a statutory duty imposed upon the respondents to look into the complaint made, a writ of mandamus would not lie. If the petitioner has got any grievance against the local bar, which has passed the resolution, he has to work out the remedy in the manner known to law, provided there is a civil wrong inflicted on him. Further more, the local bar has also not been added as party respondent in this writ petition. The resolution per se will not give any cause of action to file a writ petition. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed. No costs.
