Heard Shri Vora, learned counsel for the applicants/ appellants and Shri Mandpe, learned AGP for the respondents. The application is to condone delay of 96 days in filing first appeal. Perused the affidavit. The learned AGP, however, contends that the reasons given in the affidavit are not sufficient. I do not agree with him. There are no malafides in the matter and hence delay is condoned subject to payment of cost of Rs.500/- to High Court Legal Services Sub-Committee, Nagpur, within a period of four weeks from today. If the costs are so paid, the office to register first appeals and place it for further consideration thereafter. JUDGE *GS.
