Sir,
i have query if any Petition in regards to service matter has been allowed on merits but agitated again on limitation which has been disposed off as time barred (Limitation) How can it be enforced on its merits?
For this, I want to state that my Petition by CAT has been allowed on Feb 2010 but was agitated before High Court on the plea of Limitation and High Court has remanded back to CAT for deciding the issue of Limitation which is now disposed off as Time barred
Now Kindly inform whether such order has still force as it has been allowed on its merits?
