ORDER
The limited prayer sought for by the petitioner herein is for a direction to the third respondent to comply with the order of the Principal Labour Court, Chennai passed in C.P.No.409 of 1999, dated 28.04.2004 and consequentially deposit the said amount on the file of the second respondent herein. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/
2. About 17 years have passed, since the order was passed in the claim petition and the third respondent was also set exparte in the proceedings before the Labour Court.
3. At this juncture, it would not be appropriate to render positive directions for compliance of the order, since the present status is unknown. Nevertheless, if the petitioner is granted liberty to make an appropriate representation before the third respondent seeking for implementation of the order of the Labour Court, dated 28.04.2004, with a consequential direction to the third respondent to consider the same within a stipulated time, the ends of justice could be secured.
4. In the light of the above observations, the petitioner is granted liberty to make an appropriate representation to the third respondent, ventilating his grievances and on receipt of the same, the third respondent shall consider it on its own merits and take appropriate course of action in accordance with law, within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of the representation. The Writ Petition stands disposed of, accordingly. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
