FARAD CONTINUATION SHEET NO. IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE, BENCH AT AURANGABAD CIVIL APPLICATION NO.458 OF 2009 IN FIRST APPEAL (ST.) NO.22360 OF 2001 ________________________________________________________ Office Notes, Office | Memoranda of Coram, | Court's or Judge's orders appearances, Court's | orders or directions | and Registrar's orders | ________________________________________________________ This application is for condonation of delay of 506 days caused in filing the appeal. It is averred in the application that the impugned judgment and award was passed on 2nd March, 2000. On 14th March, 2001, the Law & Judiciary Department sanctioned proposal for filing appeal and the same was received by the Government Pleader’s office on 15th March, 2001. The appeal was actually filed on 20th December, 2001. 2 On merits, it is submitted that the Land Acquisition Officer awarded compensation of Rs.16,240/- and the reference Court enhanced it to Rs.44,080/-. 3 I have heard Shri Jadhav, learned A.G.P. in support of this application. In my opinion, the applicant has not made out sufficient cause for condoning the delay. That apart, even considering the quantum involved in the appeal, in my opinion, this is not a fit case for condoning the delay. 4 In the result, civil application is rejected with no order as to costs. (R.G. KETKAR, J.) 23.11.2009. PLK/*
