( 1 ) IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF BOMBAY, BENCH AT AURANGABAD CIVIL APPLICATION NO. 11355 OF 2009 WITH REVIEW APPLICATION (ST.) NO. 7242 OF 2009 IN WRIT PETITION NO. 207 OF 2007 Chief Engineer, MSEDCL, Latur & others APPLICANTS VERSUS Balaji Bapurao Shinde RESPONDENT ..... Mr. Kailas B. Jadhav, advocate holding for Mr. H.T. Joshi, advocate for the applicants. ..... [CORAM : V.R. KINGAONKAR, J.] [DATE : 4th January, 2010] PER COURT : 1. The applications are for condonation of delay and for review of the judgement and order rendered in writ petition No. 207/2007 by this Court. 2. Heard Mr. K.B. Jadhav, holding for Mt. H.T. Joshi. 3. The delay is of more than one year. The justification attempted to be furnished for the alleged delay is rather laconic and unacceptable. The order under review was immediately communicated to the ( 2 ) petitioner. There cannot be any substantial justification for the petitioner to sit over the matter. The respondent appears to have filed contempt petition and thereafter, the review application came to be filed. It is, in fact, stated in the application that the original petitioner was appointed by virtue of letter dated 11-09-2008. In other words, compliance of the order was said to have been done. 4. It is argued that the application was submitted after about 12/13 years of the death of the employee and, therefore, compassionate appointment was impermissible. The said issue does not survive any more because such compassionate appointment order was issued to the petitioner. There is no substantial ground to condone the delay or to consider the review application. No error apparent on face of record is demonstrated. Hence, both the applications are dismissed. [ V.R. KINGAONKAR ] JUDGE NPJ/ca11355-09
