Mukesh R. Shah,

Feeling aggrieved and dissatisfied with the impugned judgment and order passed by the learned Single Judge dated 17.04.2017, passed in Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.8985 of 2008 by which the learned Single Judge has dismissed the said petition on the ground that the same is barred by principles of res judicata, the original writ petitioner has preferred the present Letters Patent Appeal.

2. That the original writ petitioner approached this Court by way of Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.8985 of 2008 for grant of first Time Bound/Personal promotion to him from the post of Assistant Professor in Civil Engineering to the post of Associate Professor in Civil Engineering etc. However, it was observed and found that for the very reliefs sought in the present writ petition, earlier the very petitioner approached this Court by way of Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.3580 of 2002 and by order dated 28.09.2005, the learned Single Judge dismissed the said petition. It was further observed and found that against the order passed by the learned Single Judge in Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.3580 of 2002, the writ petitioner preferred the appeal being LPA No.1239 of 200
