1 vks IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE CIVIL JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO. 2406 OF 1998 M/s Spectomatic Pvt. Ltd. ....Petitioner. Vs. Bombay Labour Union and anr ....Respondents. Mr. Mahendra Agavekar i/b Rajesh Gehani, for the Petitioner. None for the Respondents. CORAM : ANOOP V. MOHTA, J. DATE : 6th April, 2010 P.C.: 1. Called out from the final hearing board. None present for the respondent 2. The petitioner has challenged the basic direction given in the impugned order by Industrial Court,Thane in order dated 11.11.1997. This Court, however, while admitting the petition on 8.7.1998, stayed the same. However, accepted the statement made by learned counsel for the petitioner that they shall pay to the concerned workers wages till 10.7.1994 without making any deduction of Rs.l500/- as mentioned in the said direction at serial no.3. Accordingly the amount was paid also. 3. After l3 years, I see there is no reason to consider the merits of the matter. Even the direction so given is prima facie in favour of the management. In view of the fact that the management is also making statement that the payment was made and as the company is not working and therefore also it is difficult to recover the said amount. 2 Therefore, without observing anything on merits this petition is disposed of keeping all the points open. Rule discharged. No costs. (ANOOP V. MOHTA, J.)
