Phulparas, District-Madhubani. …… Petitioner- Respondent ----------- For the appellant : Mr. Gopal Krishna Agrawal, Government Pleader-I Mr. Dilip Kumar, Junior counsel to Government Pleader -I For the respondent : None -------- P R E S E N T Hon'ble the Chief Justice & Hon'ble Mr. Justice Kishore K. Mandal ------- Dated, the 01st October, 2008 This Letters Patent Appeal suffers from delay of one hundred ninety three days. For condonation thereof, an application (I.A.No.4096/2008) has been made. Even if, we condone the delay in filing the appeal, in our considered view, the appeal is devoid of any substance and does not deserve to be admitted. 2. The Single Judge considered the matter in the right - 2 - perspective. Since we concur with the view of the single judge, it do not deem it necessary to repeat the reasons that have been assigned by the single judge. 3. Letters Patent Appeal does not deserve to be admitted. It is dismissed in limine. This disposes of application for condonation of delay (I.A.No.4096 of 2008) also. 4. Since the Letters Patent Appeal has been dismissed in limine, the application for interim relief does not survive. Consequently I.A.No.4097 of 2008 for grant of stay stands rejected. R. M.
