Reported redress removed the live grievance

Abdullah Khan’s counsel stated that the grievance had already been redressed. The Court reasoned that no cause for the writ then survived and dismissed it as infructuous. This is more specific than a bare passage-of-time disposal, but does not identify the administrative relief granted.

Separate closure from the content of relief

Use this order to establish the writ’s closure on the basis of reported redress. The relevant departmental communication is still needed to show what was corrected, for which period and amount. The High Court did not adjudicate a residual tax issue or order a particular refund or cancellation here.
