FARAD CONTINUATION SHEET NO. IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO. 1070 OF 2007 IN CRIMINAL APPEAL NO. 872 OF 2007 ------------------------------------------------------ Office Notes, Office Court’s or Judge’s Memoranda of Coram, orders appearance, Court’s orders or directions and Registrar’s orders ------------------------------------------------------ Mr. Niranjan Mundargi for applicant. Mr. D.P. Adsule, APP for State. CORAM: B.H. MARLAPALLE,J. 19/09/2007. P.C.: . Heard Mr. Mundargi the learned counsel for the applicant who has filed Criminal Appeal No. 872 of 2007 but belatedly under Section 374 of Cr.P.C. and hence this application for condonation of delay. As per the office report the appeal is beyond time by 153 days. . Admittedly the accused has been in custody since 28/7/2000 and, therfore, he could not take appropriate steps for filing the appeal. I am satisfied that the delay deserves to be condoned. . Hence, the application is allowed in terms of prayer clause (a). (B.H. Marlapalle,J.)
