In this application filed under Section 5 of the Limitation Act, the prayer is to condone the delay of 433 days in filing the appeal. 2. Admittedly, the writ petition was disposed by the learned Single Judge on November 28, 2008. It is averred by the petitioner/appellant in the affidavit filed in support of the application that he applied for a certified copy of the award on January 5, 2010 and the copy was delivered to him on January 18, 2010. He asserts that the delay was not wilful and it was caused only due to some inadvertent mistake on his part. The affidavit is totally unsatisfactory and bereft of any plausible or justifiable reason for condonation of the inordinate delay. Therefore, the delay petition is dismissed. Consequently, the Appeal is also dismissed. A.K.BASHEER, JUDGE P.Q.BARKATH ALI, JUDGE sv.
