Mr.H.J.Dedhia APP for the State. Mr.J.D.Mane for the respondents. CORAM : D.B.BHOSALE & RAJESH.G.KETKAR, JJ. DATED : 27TH AUGUST, 2010. P.C. This appeal was called out for hearing on 24th August, 2010 when none appeared for the respondent-accused. One Shri T.E.Mane, advocate had filed his power on behalf of all the respondents. Shri T.E.Mane, however, passed away few years back and in view thereof notices were issued to the respondents. Despite service, nobody has filed appearance on their behalf till this date. When the matter was called out on 24.8.2010 Shri J.D.Mane, advocate was present in the court. We requested him to appear on behalf of the respondents, which, he readily accepted, but the order to that effect remained to be passed. The office was also directed to furnish him a copy of the paperbook. Mr.J.D.Mane has gone through the papers and is ready to go on with the matter today. We, therefore, pass formal order appointing Mr.J.D.Mane to conduct this appeal on behalf of the respondents. (RAJESH.G.KETKAR,J.) (D.B.BHOSALE,J.) S
