City Montessori School vs State Of U.P. & Ors on 18 February, 2009
In City
Montessori (supra) it was held that the court despite opining that the
principle of natural justice was required to be followed may however decline
grant of a relief on the premise that the same would lead to a useless
formality or, that the person concerned in fact did not suffer any prejudice.
The said judgment has no manner of application to the facts of the instant
case as in the instant case we have held that there is no requirement of an
opportunity of hearing to be given to the members of the erstwhile
committee as the life of such Committee stood expired by efflux of time and
the Committee was not removed by an order in writing by the Registrar.
