1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH : NAGPUR CA NO. 4603 OF 2003 IN FIRST APPEAL ST. NO. 11324 OF 2003 (State of Maharashtra & Ors. vs. Budharam Tukaram Darunde) Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's orders Court's or Judge's orders or directions and Registrar's orders. CORAM : B.P. DHARMADHIKARI, J. JANUARY 06, 2009. Heard Smt. Khade, learned AGP for the applicants/ appellants. The prayer is to condone 814 days delay in filing First Appeal under Section 54 of Land Acquisition Act. As per Registry, delay is of one year and 359 days. The application along with additional affidavit is grossly inadequate to explain the delay. The impugned judgment is dated 21.3.2001 and application for certified copy was itself moved on 31.12.2002. There is no justification given as to why it could not be applied for within a period of 90 days. In the circumstances, no case is being made out for condoning delay. Civil Application is rejected. JUDGE *GS.
