1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY, NAGPUR BENCH, NAGPUR Letters Patent Appeal No.207 of 2007 In Writ Petition No.4366 of 2003 (Decided) (C.J. Patel Tobacco Pvt. Ltd. v. Mah. Rajya Bidi Mazdoor Sangh and others) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-- Office Notes, Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's orders or directions : Court's or Judge's orders and Registrar's orders. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Shri M.P.M. Pillai, Advocate for Appellant. CORAM : A.P. Deshpande & R.C. Chavan, JJ. DATE : 10th January, 2008 A grievance is made that in the proceedings before respondent No.4 – The Government Labour Officer – no proper opportunity was extended to the appellant while verification of the records. The said contention has been rejected by the learned Single Judge while rejecting the writ petition. Perused the impugned order passed by the learned Single Judge so also the order-sheet dated 3-2-2004, which goes to reveal that all concerned parties were present when the records were verified and thus the grievance about denial of an opportunity while verification of the records is unsustainable. The next submission is that respondent No.4 has not passed a speaking order as is expected under Rule 34 of the Rules made under the Beedi and Cigar Workers (Conditions of Employment) Act, 1966. In the first place, the said submission was not addressed before the learned Single Judge in the writ petition 2 and in the second place, we are of the view that the dispute has been decided after the verification of the records. In view of this, there is no merit in the appeal and it is, therefore, dismissed. JUDGE JUDGE pdl
