DECISION

The appellant's case before the Labour Court was that his services had been terminated by the respondent's establishment verbally on 16‑7‑1989. The petition was resisted on the ground that the provisions of the Labour Laws were not applicable and that the factory itself has ceased to operate a few months before the alleged date of removal.

2. The Labour Court found that the number of employees was below twenty and otherwise too there was nothing beyond the word of the petitioner to show that he was ever in the employment of the respondents.

3. Apart from the other documents filed by the respondents there is also a Memorandum', dated 4th October, 1989, certifying that the `factory' had been closed w.e.f. 29‑9‑1989. There is not a shred of the paper to show that the appellant had ever worked with the respondents.

4. In this view of the matter there is no substance in the appeal. I will, therefore, uphold the order and dismiss the appeal.

H.B.T./2172/Lb:S Appeal dismissed.
