              Dated, this the 5th day of June, 2008

                           J U D G M E N T

The writ petition is filed challenging recovery proceedings for

recovery of arrears of gratuity payable by the petitioner to

respondents 5 to 7. Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted

that under interim orders of this Court, substantial amounts have

been paid. I do not find any justification to delay payment any

more. However, since in view of the financial difficulty expressed

by petitioner, petitioner is granted another four months time from

today to pay the entire arrears with interest. If payments are not

made on or before 30/09/2008, recovery will be continued

thereafter. Management can adjust amounts, if any due, from the

claimants from the gratuity to be paid to them.

(C.N.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, JUDGE)
