We have reported that there was no sitting of the Bench of Justice Mukhopadhyay and Justice Singhvi on 5th October 2012. LIC’s SLP was therefore postponed to 26th November 2012.
However an application has been filed in the Supreme Court for early hearing of the Special Leave Petition. Request is to consider the SLP earlier than 26th of November 2012. The Bench considering the SLP may look into this request on 9th or 10th of October.
It is hoped that the Court may also clarify its own order regarding depositing “amount due to employees” which was the subject matter of Contempt Petition in the Supreme Court. The contempt petition on this subject was later withdrawn owing to what was described as “technical reasons”.
