PER COURT : . Heard learned counsel for the parties. The present civil 2 C. A. No. 6017/2010 applications are preferred by the State of Maharashtra for condonation of delay in preferring appeals against the judgment and award dated 22nd February, 2008 passed by the Civil Judge Senior Division, Ahmedpur, Camp at Udgir in land acquisition references. Learned Assistant Government Pleader Mr. Suryawanshi appearing on behalf of applicant submits that it remained on the part of concerned authorities to forward certified copies of the judgment and award passed by the reference Court immediately. He further submits that, the Special Land Acquisition Officer took some time to provide typed copies of judgment and award, different chart and court fees. Therefore, there is delay in preferring appeals against the impugned judgment and award dated 22nd February, 2008. 2. On the other hand, learned counsel Mr. Sakollar appearing on behalf of respondents/original claimants vehemently opposed the civil applications. He submits that applicant failed to disclose sufficient cause for condonation of delay. 3. Considering the submissions made by the learned Assistant Government Pleader and the averments made in civil applications, I am of the opinion that applicant has made out a case for condonation of delay. 3 C. A. No. 6017/2010 4. The civil applications are allowed. The delay in filing appeals against the judgment and award dated 22nd February, 2008 passed by the Reference Court is condoned.
