JUDGMENT

JUDGMENT ' In the appeal captioned above the respondent had filed cross objection for claiming back benefits, but no finding was recorded on them while deciding the appeal. The respondent was dismissed from service but was re-employed. Some of the charges were left over while taking action against the respondent. Sometimes after the re-employment of the respondent, proceedings were started and he was dismissed. The respondent challenged the order of dismissal on the ground that since he was reemployed and not reinstated, no action could be legally taken against him for the alleged misconduct which had not been made the subject-matter of the previous proceedings. It was a legal point if after re-employment action could be taken for misconduct committed during previous, service. The appellant fell into the error thinking that the action could be taken, therefore, the respondent was dismissed on account of previous acts done by him. In these circumstances, the respondent is not entitled to back benefits. The cross objections are dismissed.
