The Depot Manager, Apsrtc., Shadnagar v. H.C. S. Reddy S/O Late Muthyal Reddy

THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITION No.23292 OF 2007

O R D E R

This writ petition was filed by the Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (APSRTC) through its Depot Manager, Shadnagar Depot, Mahabubnagar District, challenging the Award dated 29.12.2006 passed by the Labour Court-III, Hyderabad, in I.D.No.88 of 2005. The said I.D. was filed by the first respondent herein, a Conductor in the service of the APSRTC. The writ petition was however dismissed as against the first respondent pursuant to the order dated 04.11.2013 owing to the failure on the part of the APSRTC in effecting service of notice upon him. The validity of the Award under challenge cannot be examined in the absence of the first respondent, at whose behest it was passed. The writ petition must therefore fail in its entirety and is accordingly dismissed.

Interim order dated 05.11.2007 shall stand vacated. Pending miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall also stand dismissed. No order as to costs.
