M. Ahamed Shahjahan – Appellant
Versus
Bar Council of Tamil Nadu and Puducherry – Respondent
ORDER :
Prayer: Writ Petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India for issuance of a Writ of Mandamus, directing the 1st respondent to take action against the 3rd respondent for the misconduct of the 3rd respondent on the basis of the complaints and misusing the name of the 2nd respondent association including action for interim suspension of practice or any other appropriate remedy or relief as this Honorable Court directs.
1. Mr. C.K. Chandrasekkar, learned counsel appearing on behalf of the 1st respondent would submit that the 3rd respondent died and cause became vanished. Thus, this Writ Petition stands disposed of as infructuous. Consequently, connected Miscellaneous Petition is also closed. No costs.

A writ petition becomes infructuous when the circumstances that necessitated the petition no longer exist, such as the retirement of the respondent.
A writ petition under Article 226 becomes infructuous when the relief sought is no longer relevant or necessary.
A petitioner has the right to withdraw a writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, leading to its dismissal without further examination.
