An original petition filed to seek interim relief from a tribunal becomes infructuous and is liable to be dismissed once the tribunal has already passed the necessary interim orders during the pendency of the petition.

Anil K. Narendran, J.

The petitioner filed O.A.(EKM)No.1733 of 2025 before the Kerala Administrative Tribunal, Additional Bench at Ernakulam, seeking an order to set aside Annexure A14 order dated 16.10.2025 issued by the 1^st respondent State and for other consequential reliefs. The petitioner-applicant has filed this original petition, invoking the supervisory jurisdiction of this Court under Article 227 of the Constitution of India, since no orders were passed by the Tribunal in the interim relief sought for in the original application, seeking stay of all further proceedings pursuant to Annexure A14 order and also the similar reliefs sought for in the Miscellaneous Application filed in that original application.

2. On 19.05.2026, when this original petition came up for admission, after arguing for some time, the learned counsel for the petitioner sought adjournment. Thereafter, on 20.05.2026, an adjournment was again sought since O.A.(EKM)No.1733 of 2025 was listed before the Tribunal on 21.05.2026.

3. Today, when this original petition is taken up for consideration, the learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the reliefs sought in this original petition have become infructuous, since the Tribunal has already passed orders on the interim relief sought for in O.A.(EKM)No.1733 of 2025, on

21.05.2026.

Based on the aforesaid submission made by the learned counsel for the petitioner, this original petition is dismissed as infructuous.
