IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.11074 of 2008 RAJENDRA YADAV @ RAJU YADAV Versus STATE OF BIHAR ----------- 2 17.09.2008 This application is for restoration of Cr.Misc.No. 11412 of 2004 which stood dismissed for default on 5th January 2005, as nobody appeared on repeated calls. This restoration application has been filed on 10th March 2008 i.e. a period exceeding three years after its dismissal. The only ground taken in this restoration application is that the previous counsel, who was conducting the said Cr. Misc. No. 11412 of 21004 left practice and joined a Company as Legal Advisor and that on 14th February 2008 when the petitioner contacted the present counsel, he advised him for filing of this restoration application and thus, it has been filed. The application has been filed with exorbitant delay. There is no reasonable explanation for the delay. In such view of the matter, I do not feel satisfied about the grounds as taken in the petition and, therefore, this application is rejected. Jay/ (C.M.Prasad,J)
