Mr. R.R. Imale, Advocate for the petitioner CORAM : B.R. GAVAI, J. DATE : 17th July, 2009. ORAL ORDER :- 1] By way of present petition, the petitioner has challenged the the order dated 25th August, 2003 i.e. almost after a period of 6 years. 2] Leave apart any justification as to what is the reason for the inordinate delay in approaching this court, there is not even a whisper in the petition as to why the petitioner was prevented from approaching this court for a long period of 6 years. A party seeking interference of this court under its extraordinary jurisdiction is expected to approach this as early as possible and in any case within a reasonable period. Since there is no explanation regarding the inordinate delay, the petition is rejected on the said ground alone. grt/ [B.R. GAVAI,J.] 2
