NO. 35806 OF 2000 -------------------------------------------- Dated this the 22nd day of November, 2007 JUDGMENT Even though petitioner apprehends that demand of Toddy workers Welfare Fund contribution is for three years as against one year, namely, 1998-99, during which period petitioner was the licensee, counsel for the Welfare Fund Board submitted that demand is only for 1998-99, which the petitioner is liable to pay. Even though counsel for the petitioner submitted that appeal was filed against the same, I do not think that this Court should look into it because there was earlier direction vide Ext.P1 to dispose of the appeal. If appeal is not disposed of so far, it is open to the petitioner to file contempt. O.P. is dismissed with the above observations. (C.N. RAMACHANDRAN NAIR) Judge 2
