VITHAL KUSTA GAONKAR AND 5 ORS., ... Respondents Mr. E. P. Badrinarayanan,Advocate for the applicant. Coram:- R. S. MOHITE, J. Date:- 31st August, 2007 P.C. This is an application for condonation of delay. The delay is of 636 days. Though the applicant is a Insurance Company, the only ground given is that the delay is caused due to administrative reasons in obtaining instructions from the higher authorities in filing first appeal. Such a vague reason cannot be accepted. There is no mention in the application as to when the certified copy applied for and when it was obtained. There is no mention as to which higher authorities was required to be contacted. There is no substance in the application. Hence, application is rejected. It is noticed that on 26.7.2007 an order was obtained in the main appeal under Stamp No.1899/2007 though there was application pending for condonation of delay. Since this application is being dismissed, the order dated 26.7.2007 is recalled. If any amount has been deposited in the court on 26.7.2007, the applicant will be at liberty to withdraw the same. Application and the main appeal stands disposed off. R. S. MOHITE, J. SMA
