Bedi, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. P.S. Goraya, Advocate for respondent No.2. --- Adarsh Kumar Goel, J. This writ petition challenges award of the Labour Court dated 12.8.2003 (Annexure P1) only on the ground that the award was ex-parte and service was not effected on the petitioner. C.W.P. No.17759 of 2005 We have perused the impugned award which records that services of the workman were terminated on 2.9.2001 without any notice, notice pay, retrenchment compensation or chargesheet and that in spite of service, the management did not enter appearance. In view of above, the petitioner having not taken any stand on merits and is not willing to pay even a sum of Rs.50,000/- to show its bona fides, we do not find any ground to entertain this petition. The writ petition is dismissed. ( ADARSH KUMAR GOEL ) JUDGE July 02, 2007 ( AJAI LAMBA ) ashwani JUDGE 2
