Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest ? M.M. KUMAR, J. 1. The instant appeal under Clause X of the Letters Patent is directed against the judgment dated 12.1.2011 rendered by the learned Single Judge holding that the petitioner lacks three years' experience, which is necessary for consideration for appointment on the post of driver. The learned Single Judge also found that the writ petition suffered from delay and latches as the order dated 24.10.2007 was challenged in 2011 which is obviously after a period of three years and about four months. There is no explanation for delay and latches. Accordingly, the appeal fails and the same is dismissed. 2. In view of the fact that the appeal has been dismissed on merit, we do not inclined to pass any order on the application seeking condonation of delay of three days in filing of the appeal. ( M.M. KUMAR ) JUDGE ( T.P.S. MANN ) March 14, 2011 JUDGE satish
