Ms.Bharti Shivarkar i/by Sudhir Shah & Associates for respondent nos.1 & 2. ---- Coram : R.S.MOHITE,J Date : 7th January, 2010 PC 1 This is an application for condonation of 44 days delay in filing of the First Appeal. The respondents have filed a reply opposing the condonation of delay. The applicants have stated in the application that the delay was caused because some time was taken in approaching the Advocate and seeking his opinion as to whether appeal should be filed. They have stated that the delay was not intentional. A reply merely opposes the application on the ground that the affidavit of the Advocate is not annexed. In the interest of justice, I am inclined to condone the delay. Delay is therefore, condoned. Civil Application is allowed and stands disposed off. Office to number the First Appeal and place the same on board for admission on 14.1.2010. (R.S.MOHITE,J) 2 3
