No. 3822-C of 2009 This is an application under Section 151 of the Code of Civil Procedure for condoning the delay of 262 days in refiling the present appeal. The only ground taken in the application for condonation of delay reads as under: - “That the accompanying appeal was filed on 28.11.2007 but some objections were raised by the Registry branch and so it was taken back for removing the objections but inadvertantly the clerk of the counsel for the appellant kept this file with the admitted cases and now when the appellant inquired about his case then this file was searched and now it is immediately filed urgently without any further delay.” R.S.A. No. 1300 of 2009 (O&M) -2- However, in view of the law laid down by this Court in Krishan Dev Dhiman Vs. Mahesh Bhatia and others, 2008(4) P.L.R. 23, this application cannot be accepted, as the appellant has failed to show sufficient cause for condonation of delay of 262 days in refiling the appeal. Dismissed. R.S.A. No. 1300 of 2009 Keeping in view that the application for condonation of delay in refiling the appeal stands dismissed, the appeal is dismissed as time barred. (Vinod K.
