Reported in: 104(2007)CLT369; [2007(115)FLR49]; 2007(II)OLR127

A.K. Ganguly, C.J. 1. This writ appeal has been filed against the order of the learned Single Judge dated 13.9.2006 passed in W.P.(C) No. 7800 of 2004. By the said order, the learned Single Judge dismissed the writ application on two grounds; the first one was that the writ application was filed on 23.7.2004 challenging the Award dated 30.11.2002 passed by the Industrial Tribunal, Orissa, Bhubaneswar i.e. after a substantial delay and there was no averment in the writ application explaining the delay.

Stale claims are not to be entertained by a writ Court. It is difficult for this Court to take a view different from the one taken by the learned Single Judge in the facts and circumstances of the case.The other ground taken by the writ C...
