Summary: Civil Appeal No. 313/2004 (Tara Chand Sachdeva v. Rohini Kumari) The Supreme Court set aside the High Court's in limine dismissal of the appellant's statutory appeal in a Workmen Compensation Act case arising from a 1985 incident. The Court found that despite a six-year delay in filing the claim petition (condoned by the tribunal), the High Court should have given the appeal deeper consideration rather than dismissing it summarily, particularly given a 1992 criminal acquittal order of which respondents were aware. The Court remitted the matter to the High Court for fresh decision on merits with expeditious hearing, directing that 50% of the appellant's deposited amount be paid to the deceased workman's legal representatives pending appeal.
