THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CIVIL REVISION PETITION No.2211 of 2011 ORDER : This Civil Revision Petition is filed by the petitioner-appellant being aggrieved by the order dated 18.03.2011 passed in I.A.No.664 of 2006 in A.S.No.39 of 2001 by the II Additional District Judge (FTC) Parvathipuram. I.A.No.664 of 2006 is filed by the petitioner herein under Section 5 of Limitation Act seeking to condone the delay of 1290 days caused in filing the application under Order IX Rule 9 of the Civil Procedure Code to set aside the dismissal order for default passed in A.S.No.39 of 2002 dated 21.07.2006 and to restore the same to original file and the said application was dismissed by the learned Appellate Judge by impugned order. Heard. This Court perused the entire record including the impugned order. The appeal in A.S.No.39 of 2002 was dismissed by the learned Appellate Judge for default on the part of the petitioner herein on 21.07.2006 and the said fact was came to the knowledge of the petitioner herein on 07.10.2006 i.e. about 2 ½ months thereafter. But, the impugned petition seeking to condone the delay is filed after lapse of 1290 days after dismissal of the appeal for default. In the impugned petition filed before the Court below, petitioner assigned reasons for the delay caused upto 07.10.2006 only, but he has not explained any reasonable cause for delay in filing the impugned petition after 1290 days. Without there being any valid reason assigned for causing delay, the same cannot be condoned. Hence, the Court below has rightly dismissed the application of the petitioner. This Court does not see any infirmity or illegality in dismissing the application of the petitioner herein seeking to condone the inordinate delay of 1290 days caused in filing the petition to set aside the dismissal order for default dated 21.07.2006. The Civil Revision Petition is devoid of merits and the same is accordingly dismissed. No costs. ________________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO Dated 8th July, 2011 sur / Rns
