It is submitted that final orders in the proceeding have been passed on 4.2.2011. 2 This MJC application has, therefore, been filed for extension of time granted by this Court to conclude the proceeding till the date of passing of the final orders. On an earlier date, learned counsel for the present petitioner was asked to serve a copy of this MJC application on learned counsel for the writ petitioner. Learned counsel informs that the same was served on Sri Ashok Kumar Sinha No.2, Advocate, who had appeared for the writ petitioner in the writ matter. However, since last two dates, Sri Sinha is not appearing on behalf of the writ petitioner to oppose this MJC application filed by the State and its authorities for extension of time, although his name appears in the cause list. In the circumstances, this MJC application is allowed and the time fixed by this Court in the writ matter for conclusion of the proceeding is directed to be treated as extended till 4.2.2011, the date on which final orders were passed.
