1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH : NAGPUR CIVIL APPLICATION NO. 6991 OF 2007 in SA ST. NO.15341 OF 2007 NIT vs. Jagdish Topandas Krishnani 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. MARCH 12, 2008. Heard Shri Chhabra, Advocate for the appellant/ applicant and Shri Purohit, Advocate for the respondent. The reason for not filing appeal within time though it was ready is that inadvertently the Peon in the office of Legal Advisor placed it with disposed of files and it was traced out only in June 2007. According to Shri Purohit, Advocate, reason is not just and sufficient. However, after hearing both the advocates, I find that the present respondent has also not taken any steps to execute judgment and decree in his favour in the meanwhile. In the circumstances, delay of 482 days in filing Second Appeal is condoned subject to payment of cost of Rs.2,000/- by present applicant to High Court Legal Services Sub-Committee, 2 Nagpur, by 1.4.2008. If the costs are so paid, the office to register First Appeal and place it for further consideration. The applicant is free to recover said amount from the concerned Peon if it finds that he was negligent in the matter. The Registrar (Judicial) to find out why office note mentions delay of only 52 days. JUDGE *GS.
