Special Officer vs Easwaran on 29 November, 2016

The judgment of this Court in Somasundaram V. Liyakat Ali [1997 (1) CTC 4] has been relied upon by the lower appellate Court in this case to hold that the suit is maintainable. However, the decision which was followed by the lower appellate Court has been overruled by this Court earlier and the law has been well settled by the judgment of the Division Bench of this Court in the case cited above. Having regard to the legal position and the implied exclusion of jurisdiction of Civil Court, this Court feel that the dispute can only be resolved by referring the matter to the Industrial Tribunal or by availing the remedy provided under the provisions of Tamil Nadu Cooperative Societies Act. Hence, the judgment of the lower appellate Court in A.S.No.87 of 2007 confirming the judgment and decree of the trial Court in O.S.No.196 of 2002 is set aside. The suit filed in O.S.No.196 of 2002 is dismissed. The Second Appeal is allowed. However, there is no order as to costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed.

In 1998 II LLJ 109 Madras  Somasundaram vs. Liyakat Ali and another, it has been held that a reading of Section 156 makes it clear that to get protection under the Act, the authorities under the Act must pass orders or awards for which they are empowered under the Act and it is only those powers that cannot be called in question in a civil suit. That is the case where the plaintiff therein was a clerk in a cooperative society and he filed the suit for a declaration that the second defendant in the said suit is a junior to him and also for a declaration that the resolution passed by the first defendant therein appointing the second defendant as a senior clerk is illegal, incompetent and without jurisdiction. The second defendant contended that the suit is not maintainable. According to him, the plaintiff ought to have moved either under the provisions of the Cooperative Societies Act or under the Industrial Disputes Act. It was held that a civil suit, is barred under Section 9 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The said judgment may not be of any use to the present case on hand.
