(1.) THIS appeal was filed in 1996 against the order of the learned Single Judge dismissing the appellant's petition challenging the award dated 12.1.1991 made by the Labour Court. Since publication of notice for preparation of paper book on 29.4.1998, after seeking a number of adjournments neither list of documents have been filed by the appellant nor initial charges for the paper book have been deposited. Having seen the record of the case and the issue involved, we deem it proper to dispense with the preparation of the paper book and to decide the appeal itself after hearing the parties.
(2.) HEARD the learned Counsel for the parties.
(3.) THEREAFTER appellant challenged the aforesaid award by way of Writ Petition No. 574/1995.
