On request of learned counsel for the petitioner, the said petition is taken up on board for final hearing. 3. Both these petitions are directed against the common order dated 26th April, 1994 passed in Misc.Application Nos.27/1993 and 28/1993 by the Motor Accidents Claims Tribunal whereby applications for setting aside ex parte award came to be dismissed. The awards-in-original was passed on 18th September, 1991, whereas the applications for setting ex parte awards were filed in the month of April, 1993, i.e., after expiry of so many months. Both these applications were rejected on the ground that the petitioner/ original opponent was served with the notice by the Tribunal in the claim applications and in spite of service he did not remain present relying upon the assurance given by the Development Officer of the insurance company. The explanation given by the petitioner was not accepted by the Tribunal. The findings of fact are recorded by the Tribunal with which no interference is permissible under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. The view taken by the Tribunal is a reasonable and possible view. 4. The petitioner is directed to deposit balance amounts payable to the respondent No.1- claimants in both petitions within a period of 15 days from the date of receipt of this order subtracting the amount already deposited by him in the Tribunal or this Court. 5. With the aforesaid directions, both petitions stand disposed of with no order as to costs. (V.C.DAGA, J.) (V.C.DAGA, J.) (V.C.DAGA, J.)
