MC 2821/2011 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE B.P. KATAKEY Perusal of the office note dated 15.11.2011 reveals that notices for ser vice on the respondent Nos.1 and 2 were issued by registered post with A/D on 04 .11.2011. Office note dated 07.12.2011 reveals that while the respondent No.2 ha s been served, neither the A/D card nor the un-served notice in respect of the r espondent No.1 has returned. Since more than 30 days have elapsed from the date of issuance of such n otice, the notice in respect of the said respondent is deemed to be served. None appears for the respondent Nos.1 and 2. Heard Mr. Bhatra, learned counsel for the applicant. The applicant by the present application is seeking condonation of delay of 15 days in preferring the appeal. Having heard the learned counsel for the applicant and upon perusal of t he averments made in the application seeking condonation of delay, I am of the v iew that the applicant was prevented by sufficient cause in not filing the appea l in time. Hence the delay occurred in filing the appeal is condoned. Misc. case stands allowed.
