Amazon Denied Approval To File Written Note In Case By Future Retail
NDTV
Amazon and the Future group are engaged in legal battle for over a year as the US major is opposing the merger of FRL with Reliance Retail.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday did not allow Amazon to file a written submission in a case related to Future Retail's plea for approval to proceed with National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) permission of going ahead with Rs 24,731 crore merger deal with Reliance Retail.
A bench headed by Chief Justice N V Ramana, which had reserved its order on February 3, was irked over the alleged delayed request of the US-based e-commerce major to file the written note in the case and said that it appeared to be a "luxurious litigation".
"You want to complicate the matters. It is fine. You want to drag on, continue these hearings... If I allow you, then I will have to allow them (FRL) also. I do not understand what this practice is. If that day (February 3) you would have asked then it would have been a different story," said the Chief Justice.
"It is just to assist the court," the lawyer said.
