IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA LPA No.930 of 2007 BRAHAM NARAIN MISHRA Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- For the Appellant : Mr. Pramod Mishra, Advocate For the Respondents : Mr. Nirmal Kumar, Government Pleader No.4 ------------- P R E S E N T Hon'ble the Chief Justice & Hon'ble Mr. Justice Kishore K. Mandal ---------- Dated, the 22nd July, 2008. The writ petition filed by the present appellant came to be dismissed by the Single Judge on the grounds of laches and unexplained delay. That the appellant suffered order of dismissal dated 28th of June, 1993 is not in dispute. The writ petition has been filed on 19th June 2001. It would be, thus, seen that the appellant challenged the order of dismissal before this Court almost after eight years. The counsel for the appellant would submit that the order of dismissal was not served. We are afraid this submission does not deserve to be accepted. 2. The writ petition in the circumstances cannot be said to have been wrongly dismissed on the ground of laches. 3. L.P.A. is dismissed accordingly. R. M. Lodha, CJ Kishore K. Mandal, J Pawan/-
