Respondents. and two cases. THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B. PRAKASH RAO AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE D. APPA RAO WRIT APPEAL Nos. 969, 997 and 1073 of 2004 COMMON JUDGMENT: (Per Hon’ble Sri Justice B. Prakash Rao) Heard both the sides and at their request, these three appeals are taken up together for disposal. The principal dispute is in regard to the claim made by the writ petitioners-the workers with respondent No.16 herein, who, inter alia, filed the Writ Petition seeking a Mandamus claiming certain terminal benefits. The learned Single Judge, after considering the case on merits, disposed of the Writ Petition with a direction that the sale proceeds including the amounts appropriated by the appellant herein to be deposited before the Company Court. However, during the course of arguments, the learned counsel on either side submits that in the meanwhile, the amounts have already been deposited and it is more apt on the part of the respondents 1 to 14 to approach the Official Liquidator, to seek their claims. It is also represented by the counsel that in fact, the amounts claimed by the respondents-workers are far below the amounts already deposited. Therefore, there would not be any difficulty for releasing the amounts even if any further claims are made. It is always open to the parties to avail the remedies available under law. Subject to the above, the three Writ Appeals are disposed of. No costs. It is needless to mention that soon after the application is filed by the writ petitioners-workers before the Official Liquidator, he shall dispose of the same within a period of two months therefrom and make necessary payments. __________________ B.
