2025:UHC:568 SL. No. Date Office Notes, reports, orders or proceedings or directions and Registrar’s order with Signatures COURT’S OR JUDGE’S ORDERS WPSS No. 71 of 2025 Hon’ble Rakesh Thapliyal, J. 1. Mr. Tapan Singh, learned counsel, holding brief of Mr. Sanjay Kumar, learned counsel for the petitioners and Mr. Pradeep Hairiya, learned Standing Counsel for the State. 2. The writ petition is thoroughly misconceived since the grievance of the petitioner is that the order passed by the Coordinate Bench dated 03.08.2021 has not been complied with. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the limitation for preferring the contempt petition is only one year, therefore, the contempt petition will not lie. 4. The arguments, as advanced, are thoroughly misconceived. Since the contempt petition cannot be treated as time barred because the non-compliance resulted in continuous wrong. 5. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed, being devoid of merit. (Rakesh Thapliyal, J.) 10.01.2025 Ujjwal 2025:UHC:568
