SANTHOSH THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 28/01/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC,J. ----------------------- W.P.(C).No.1319 OF 2009 ------------------------ Dated this the 28th day of January, 2009. JUDGMENT Non-payment of the compensation awarded by the MACT, Ernakulam in O.P(MV).No.1717/99 is the complaint in the writ petition. The award was rendered on 12th September, 2006 and even the Standing Counsel for the respondent has no case that the award has not become final. 2. If that be so, I see no reason to delay the payment any further, particularly for the reason that the accident in question took place on 28.3.1999. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of directing that the compensation under Ext.P1award shall be paid in full by the first respondent herein as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within 3 months from the date of production of a copy of the judgment.
