Headnote | Constitution of India, 1950: Articles 21, 32, 226 & 227-Writ Petition withdrawn without permission to file a fresh petition-Effectof-Petitioner whether precluded from filing any fresh petition/suit in respect of the same subject matter. Civil Procedure Code, 1908: Order XXlll, Rule I-Applicability' of to cases of withdrawal of writ petitions.Sub-rule (I) of rule I, Order XXIII of the Code of Civil Procedure permits a plaintiff to abandon his suit against . all or any of the defendants at any time after the institution of the suit; sub-rule (3) lays down that where the court is satisfied (a) that a suit must fail by reasonof some formal defect, or (b) that there are sufficient grounds for allowing the plaintiff to institute a fresh suit for the subject matter of the suit,it may grant permission to him to withdraw from such suit with liberty to institute a fresh suit, while sub-rule (4) provides that where theplaintiff abandons any suit under sub-rule ( 1) or withdraws from it without the permission referred to in sub-rule (3), he shall be precludedfrom instituting any fresh suit in respect of such subject matter.The provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908 are not in terms applicable to the writ proceedings. However, the procedure prescribed, therein, as far as it can be made applicable, is followed by the High Court in disposing of the writ petitions.The petitioner withdrew its earlier writ petition filed under Art.226/227 of the Constitution without permission of the Court to file a fresh petition. Later on it filed another writ petition against the order assailed in the first petition. The High Court summarily dismissed ittaking the view that no second writ petition lies against the same order where the earlier petition was not withdrawn with permission to file afresh petition. In this petition· for special leave it was contended that since the High Court had not decided the earlier petition on merits but had only permitted the petitioner to withdraw it the withdrawal could not be treated as a bar to the subsequent writ petition.On the question: Whether a petitioner after withdrawing a writ petition filed by him in the High Court under Art. 226/227 of the Constitution without permission to institute a fresh petition can file a fresh writ petition in the High Court under these Articles, and whether itwould advance the cause of justice if the principle underlying rule I, Order XXIII of the Code of Civil Procedure is adopted in respect of thewrit petitions under these Articles. |
