DATED THIS THE 28TH DAY OF JANUARY, 2009
JUDGMENT
The petitioner, while employed as a servant of the third
respondent, was dismissed from service following disciplinary
proceedings. Against that he filed an appeal to the committee of
the society and that appeal was also rejected. He filed an
arbitration case. ARC 37 of 2000 was decided on 30.3.2001
holding against the plea of the petitioner. Parallel to the
arbitration proceedings, petitioner also filed writ petition before
this court. However, that writ petition was disposed of on
17.11.2000, that is, before the arbitration award directing the
committee of the society to consider the appeal of the petitioner.
That decision in the appeal has also merged in the award of the
Arbitrator(Ext.P3). After issuance of Ext.P3 in March 2001, the
petitioner got yet another order against him in the form of
Ext.P9, whereby the Joint Registrar refused to interfere with the
decision of the management. With the passage of time, after 5 to
6 years, all those decisions have become final, the petitioner not
having carried the award in a statutory revision or appeal before
the Tribunal. Obviously, if at all petitioner would have any
WP(C) 2754/2009 2
remedy, it is only to move the Tribunal, if it has power to do so to
consider any application to condone the delay.
Writ petition is dismissed.
