THE HON’BLE MS.JUSTICE G.ROHINI Writ Petition No.15541 of 2009 ORDER: The first petitioner herein is a trade union consisting of the staff and workers of the 2nd respondent-sugar factory. It is claimed that the 2nd respondent is liable to pay bonus to its employees, who are members of the first petitioner union at the rate of 20% for the year 2007-2008. Since no such bonus was paid, the first petitioner union made representations dated 2.4.2009 and 1.6.2009. Alleging that the 2nd respondent failed to consider the representations made by the petitioner union and no bonus has been paid till today, the present writ petition is filed. Sri S.Chakrapani has accepted notice for the 2nd respondent and the learned Government Pleader for Industries and Commerce accepted notice for the 1st respondent. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioners as well as the respondents and since admittedly the representations of the first petitioner union are pending, without expressing any opinion as to the entitlement of the members of the first petitioner union for the bonus as claimed by them, the Writ Petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondents to consider the representations dated 2.4.2009 and 1.6.2009 of the first petitioner union and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law as expeditiously as possible, preferably within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of.
