Courts Or Tribunals Referring Disputes To Lok Adalat Barred From Entertaining Appeals Against Awards Passed In Such Cases: Patna High Court

Live Law  

The Patna High Court on Tuesday held that it would be impermissible for the courts/tribunals referring a matter for settlement to Lok Adalats to examine the correctness of the award passed by the Lok Adalat. The court said that the referral courts/tribunals would also be barred from entertaining the challenge to the award passed in the Lok Adalat on the grounds of fraud. The court said that the referral courts/tribunals would also be barred from entertaining the challenge to the award passed in the Lok Adalat on the grounds of fraud and misrepresentation and clarified that a proper challenge to the award passed in the Lok Adalat could only be made to the High Court in a petition under Article 226 of the Constitution. The question to be decided would be when a Lok Adalat is constituted in the DRT or any other Court; whether the members constituting the Lok Adalat would bring with him/her the status of the Courts, they are normally occupying and render the award passed also, the status of an award/decree passed by the Court they officially occupy.
