    Summary The High Court at Calcutta dismissed three writ petitions by medical officers seeking regularisation of their ad hoc service from their initial appointment date. The court held that the regularisation issue was conclusively decided by the Central Administrative Tribunal in 2004 and affirmed by the Supreme Court in 2012, barring fresh litigation under the doctrine of res judicata. The petitioners, who were excluded from regularisation due to limited vacancies (12 positions for 15 candidates), later obtained regular appointments under the 1997 Recruitment Rules in 2016; the court found they cannot now claim regularisation of earlier ad hoc service across different recruitment rule regimes.
