Lingachari Vs. B. Krishnappa and ors.

Court: Karnataka

Decided on: Jan-18-1995

Reported in: I(1996)ACC234; 1996ACJ533

M.F. Saldanha, J.1. Heard learned counsel representing different parties. The principal point that falls for decision in this appeal is the short question as to whether the respondent No. 1 can be held to have been the registered owner of the motor cycle No. MEX 680 as on 6.9.1985 which is the date of the incident. The learned trial Judge, after consideration of the record, came to the conclusion that the vehicle had been transferred sometime prior to that date and as a necessary consequence, recorded the finding that by virtue of this transfer, the insurance company was also no longer liable. There is no dispute about the fact that if the vehicle had been in fact transferred, that the liability of the insurance company ceases unless the policy has been transferred to the new owner. Under these circumstances, the application for the award of compensation came to be dismissed even though the learned Judge after a consideration of the other issues recorded the finding that normally he wo...

ORDERM.F. Saldanha, J.1. A rather unusual situation has arisen in this group of Writ Petitions and I have heard learned Counsel appearing on both sides with regard to the aspect of procedural proprieties that arise for determination. Briefly stated, the present petitioners approached this Court through this group of Petitions on a charge that the Respondent-Company, the Mysore Sugar Company Limited, Mandya which had employed them in various capacities had sought to abruptly terminate their services. They contend that they were attached basically to various duties in relation to the then Chairman and that the Company contended that their tenure of employment was co-extensive with the term of office of that officer and that consequently, their services were being terminated.
