JUDGMENT : Hemant Gupta, J. The challenge in the present writ petition is to appointment of respondent no.4 on compassionate ground as Office Clerk. 2. The argument of learned counsel for the petitioner is that she has been appointed on compassionate ground though her father is alive. Apart from the reason that public interest litigation in service matter is not maintainable as held by this Court in CWJC No.21601 of 2014 (Samrendra Kumar Sudhansu Vs. The State of Bihar & Ors.) decided on 21.11.2016, we find the contention of the petitioner to be wholly untenable in view of Annexure-1. 3. A perusal of the Annexure-1 shows that father of the petitioner was not working since the year 1972 on account of mental imbalance. She is the only family member, who was appointed in the year 1991 after clarification from the State Government. 4. In view of the said fact, we find that the present petition is a gross abuse of the process of law challenging the appointment of respondent no.4 after more than 25 years. We dismiss the same with cost of Rs.10,000/- (Rupees ten thousand) to be deposited with the Patna High Court Legal Services Committee within one month.
