Case History
On 15 September 2003, the Supreme Court granted leave and allowed the State of U.P.'s appeal against the High Court's dismissal of their writ petition. The High Court had rejected the petition solely on grounds of delay (filed 2.5 years late), but the Supreme Court found the State's explanation—that they received an ex-parte Labour Court award without notice due to departmental restructuring and only discovered it upon account attachment—to be reasonable and worthy of consideration. The Court set aside the High Court's decision and remanded the matter for fresh hearing on merits, with no order as to costs.
