DATE: 15th February, 2008. P.C. P.C. P.C. 1. This is an application for condonation of delay of two years and 128 days in filing contempt petition in First Appeal No.1047 of 2003. While admitting the appeal, this Court had directed the appellant to deposit entire monetary part of the decree with interest and and the cost therein within twelve weeks from the date of order. The appellant did not comply with that order. The respondent in appeal seeks to file contempt petition for non-compliance of that order and seeks condonation of delay of two years and 128 days in filing contempt petition. 2. Taking into consideration the facts of the case as noted above, in my opinion, contempt petition is not appropriate remedy. The respondent should have applied :2: to the concerned Court for passing appropriate order in the appeal. I also do not see any valid reasons for condonation of delay. 3. Application stands rejected. (J.H.BHATIA,J.) (J.H.BHATIA,J.) (J.H.BHATIA,J.)
