IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Revision No.7552 of 2009 (O&M) Date of Decision : 18.12.2009 M/s K.B.Hydraulic Engineering Works .....Petitioner versus Chandeep Singh .....Respondent CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.A.P.Bhandari, Advocate, for the petitioner. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- ORDER Surya Kant, J. (Oral) This revision petition under Article 227 of the Constitution of India, has been directed by the Management against the order dated 28.10.2009 passed by the Labour Court-III, Faridabad, dismissing its application to recall the previous order dated 25.8.2009 whereby its evidence was closed. The Labour Court has observed that since the petitioner- management failed to lead its evidence without any sufficient cause despite reasonable opportunities granted, no case to review the previous order is made out. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that given one C.R. No.7552 of 2009 (O&M) 2 opportunity, for which the respondent-workman can be suitably compensated with costs, the management shall produce its entire remaining evidence at its own responsibility. Ordinarily, this Court would not have passed any order without hearing the respondent workman, however, the respondent, if called upon, is likely to be burdened with litigation expenses to contest the petitioner-management's prayer for the grant of only one opportunity to lead its entire evidence at its own responsibility. In these circumstances, leaving it open for the respondent- workman to seek review of this order, if he is really aggrieved, the revision petition is disposed of with a direction to the Labour Court-III, Faridabad, to permit the petitioner-management to produce its entire evidence on the date fixed, at its own responsibility and subject to payment of cost of Rs.10,000/- to the respondent-workman.
