THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE N.R.L. NAGESWARA RAO CIVIL REVISION PETITION No. 6213 OF 2005 O R D E R: The revision is filed against the order of the I Additional District Judge, Mahaboobnagar in dismissing an application for condonation of delay of 241 days in filing the restoration application in O.P.No.299 of 2001. Evidently, petitioners Nos. 2 to 4 are minors and petitioners Nos. 1 and 5 are ladies. They filed original petition to claim compensation consequent on the death of the deceased person. Their claim cannot be said to be false when the death is admitted. Mere laches, if any, in prosecuting the case and that too when the delay is only 241 days said to have been caused in filing the application for restoration, the Court should have taken the liberal view of the matter and allowed the delay to be condoned. Therefore, in view of the above circumstances, the order of the lower Court suffers from infirmity and it is a case where compassion has to be shown to the petitioners and the delay is condoned. The lower Court is directed to number the restoration application and proceed further with the proceedings. Accordingly, the revision petition is allowed. There shall be no order as to costs. ________________________ N.R.L.NAGESWARA RAO, J Date: 20-06-2011. INL
