THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 13/08/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J ----------------------------------------------------------- W.P.(C).No.24373/2008 ----------------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 13th day of August, 2008 JUDGMENT The challenge in this writ petition is against Ext.P3, wherein considering Ext.P2 application made by the petitioner for release of the full amount available in deposit, the Tribunal has directed release of only Rs.25,000/-. 2. A reading of Ext.P3 shows that immediately following the passing of the award, Rs.25,000/- was released on 27.3.2007. In the next month itself a further sum was released and by the impugned order also another Rs.25,000/- has been released. As at present, I am not satisfied that Ext.P3 should be invalidated on the ground stated by the petitioner. In case the petitioner has a justifiable reason it is open to her to make an appropriate application seeking release of the amount, in which case the 2 Tribunal shall consider the same and pass orders thereon. Writ Petition is disposed of as above. ANTONY DOMINIC JUDGE vi. 3
