The affidavit shows that Reference Court has delivered the judgment on 21.12.2004 and the same has been communicated on 7.11.2005 along with certified copy. In the circumstances, delay is condoned, however, subject to payment of cost of Rs.1,500/- by the present applicants to High Court Legal Services Sub- Committee, Nagpur, by 31st March 2009. The applicants are free to recover the cost from the office of District Government Pleader, Nagpur. JUDGE *GS.
