Respondents Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice A.N. Jindal Present: Mr. M.S. Longia, Advocate for the appellants. A.N. Jindal, J This appeal for enhancement, directed against the award dated 26.7.2007 passed by the Motor Accident Claims Tribunal, Ropar, awarding compensation to the tune of Rs.7,75,000/- along with interest @ 6% per annum in favour of the appellants-claimants, is accompanied by an application for condonation of 448 days' delay in filing the appeal. Arguments heard. The ground as set up by the learned counsel for the appellant that the appellants have handed over the copy of the award to their counsel for filing the appeal, but he did not file the appeal and went abroad. Under these circumstances, the remedy available with the appellants was to sue the counsel for not moving the appeal for enhancement, but in the absence of any evidence that appellants proceeded against their advocate, the ground appears to be concocted one. No grounds for condoning the delay. Consequently, the application being immaterial 1is dismissed. Resultantly, the appeal also fails. September 17, 2009 (A.N. Jindal) deepak Judge
