1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION LETTERS PATENT APPEAL NO. 269 OF 2009 IN WRIT PETITION NO. 1833 OF 2009 Shri Balaso Pandurang Sutar ).. Appellant Versus P.Y.P. Agro Industries Corporation ).. Respondent Mr. Amit Borkar for the Appellant. CORAM : SWATANTER KUMAR, C.J. A.M. KHANWILKAR, J. DATED : 11TH NOVEMBER 2009 P.C. We have heard the learned Counsel appearing for the Appellant. The Reference sought by the Appellant came to be dismissed by the Presiding Officer, 2nd Labour Court, Kolhapur vide its order dated 17th September 2008. This order was challenged before the learned Single Judge which was dismissed vide order dated 17th August 2009 giving rise to the present Letters Patent Appeal. 2. The Appellant had all throughout pleaded and sought to prove the case of wrongful termination and, therefore, sought for setting aside of termination and reinstatement with full back 2 wages. According to the Management, the unit was closed and his services were not terminated. The retrenchment compensation offered to him was not received by him. Thus, it was a case of retrenchment wherein provisions of Section 25F of the Industrial Disputes Act had been duly complied with. 3. The contention raised before us is that neither any notice was served nor any compensation was paid in accordance with the provisions of Section 25F of the Act and thus it was not a case of retrenchment and Appellant was entitled to the claim. This is primarily argument based on appreciation of evidence. In paragraph 29 of the order of the Labour Court, it has been specifically recorded that there was an endorsement on the notice that the workman had refused to accept the said notice and, therefore, it was displayed on the notice board. Thereafter even compensation of Rs.3,252/- was offered to him which he refused to accept. Both these facts were based on proper appreciation of evidence as has duly been found to be correct by the learned Single Judge. We see no reason to interfere. Letters Patent Appeal dismissed.
