AGK AGK AGK IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY ORDINARY ORIGINAL CIVIL JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO.2572 OF 2008 Shri Kulwant Singh, Proprietor, M/s.K.S. International ..Petitioner V/s. Union of India & Others ..Respondents Mr.Ashok Singb i/by R.N. Gaonkar for the petitioner. CORAM : P.B. MAJMUDAR & J.P. DEVADHAR, JJ. DATED : 25TH NOVEMBER, 2008 P.C. : 1. This petition has been filed challenging the order passed by the tribunal, by which the tribunal has not accepted the request of the petitioner to hear the matter expeditiously. The tribunal has found that the amount involved in the case is small one and does not require hearing out of turn. The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the dispute before the tribunal is covered by the judgment reported in 2004 (163) E.L.T. 64 (Tri.). In our view even if in a given case the matter is covered by the judgment of the tribunal, that itself cannot be a ground to direct the tribunal to hear the matter expeditiously. 2. At this stage, we are not expressing any opinion as to whether the subject matter in issue is covered by any judgment. Suffice it to note that such a discretionary order passed by the tribunal cannot be interfered with by this Court in exercise of extra-ordinary jurisdiction under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. Hence, rejected. (P.B. Majmudar, J.) (J.P. Devadhar, J.)
