Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Dec-11-1989

Reported in: [1990(60)FLR650]; (1991)IILLJ454Bom

Desai, J.1. This appeal is preferred against the order of the Learned Single Judge giving limited injunction to the petitioners against penal prosecution which may be launched against them in pursuance of the interim orders of the Industrial Court.2. It is clear to us that the Learned Single Judge has based his order upon an order passed by another Learned Single Judge in Writ Petition No. 512 of 1989.3. We are not bound by the order of the Learned Single Judge in writ Petition No. 512 of 1989. In our opinion if the order or the Industrial Court granting interim reliefs in the manner in which it has granted, was illegal even prima facie or contrary to the scheme of the Act or ought not to have been passed as and by way of interim relief without disposal of the complaint, the appropriate order for the High Court in its writ jurisdiction would have been to stay the said order either conditionally or unconditionally. Such a stay was not granted.4. Only two remedies are available to the wo...

In fact, the litigation between the parties and the way it has multiplied reminds one of what Lord Simon once said: 'The bitter waters would never ebb', Re Ampthill Pearage case (1976) 2 All E.R. 411, (at P 438). So much so, Mr. Dave informs me that the petitioners have been filing their caveats once in three months in all the three Courts, the Small Causes Court, the Bombay City Civil Court and the High Court for the last few years.
