By filing this Civil Application, the petitioners have prayed that the order passed by this Court dated 9th February, 1999 and 27th November, 1998 be set aside. The learned single Judge of this Court vide order dated 27th November, 1998 while admitting the petition directed the present petitioners to deposit the amount in this Court and the concerned workman was permitted to renew application under Section 17-B of the Industrial Disputes Act. Thereafter, by a subsequent order dated 9th February, 1999, the learned single Judge of this Court observed that by order dated 24th April, 1998 the petitioner was directed to deposit the entire amount of back wages within four weeks from that date but the said amount was not deposited.

By the present Civil Application, a request is made to set aside the said orders. It is pertinent to note that since the Civil Application is pending since March, 1999, the petitioners have never tried to pursue this Civil Application.

That order is now not required to be set aside after such a considerable time. Considering the aforesaid aspect of the matter, this Civil Application is not required to be entertained at this stage. Civil Application is accordingly rejected. Liberty is given to the petitioners to apply to the Court for early date of hearing. P.B. MAJMUDAR, J.
