United India Insurance Co. Ltd. Vs. Swati Rajendra Ubale and Another

Court: Mumbai Aurangabad

Decided on: Aug-01-2013

Oral Judgment: Heard both sides. It is admitted fact that the objection regarding delay of seven days caused in filing present first appeals is raised by the Registry in view of the fact that earlier the challenge to the award under section 140 of the Motor Vehicles Act could have been only by way of filing of writ petition. Those writ petitions were filed in all present cases. Thereafter, however, since in view of Supreme Court's decision, such interim award can be challenged by filing First Appeals, all the writ petitions were converted to First Appeals. As the writ petitions were filed seven days after the prescribed period of limitation for filing the First Appeals, the objection was raised. In that view of the matter, the delay in filing the First Appeals is condoned. 2. With consent of the parties, the First Appeals are admitted and taken for hearing. 3. On the earlier dates it was found by this Court that the writ petitions were filed in the year 2003 and present First Appeals w...
