No.3641 of 2010. This is an application for condonation of delay of three days. Having heard Mr. Sunil Kumar, learned counsel for the appellant and Mr. Prabhat Kumar Singh, learned counsel for the state, delay in filing the appeal stands condoned. I.A. stands disposed of. L.P.A. No.689 of 2010. 2 As we have condoned delay, we are inclined to take up the appeal for admission. On consent of learned counsel for the parties it is finally heard. In this intra-court appeal challenge is to the order dated 22.2.2010 passed by the learned Single Judge in C.W.J.C. No.2727 of 2010, whereby the learned Single Judge after taking note of the assertions made by the writ petitioner has directed the Election Tribunal to dispose of the election case within a period of two months. It is submitted by Mr. Sunil Kumar, learned counsel for the appellant that the learned Single Judge had not noticed him and on the basis of erroneous submissions the order has been passed. It is also put forth by him that the submissions which have been taken note of by the learned Single Judge and placed reliance upon are stigmatic in nature. Having heard learned counsel for the appellant and learned counsel for the State, while not interfering with the order of the learned Single Judge, that the Election Tribunal shall dispose of the election dispute 3 within a period of two months, we observe that the facts stated by the learned Single Judge shall never be construed that the appellant had adopted any kind of dilatory tactics and further they should not be treated to be stigmatic in nature. With the aforesaid clarification the appeal stands disposed of. (Dipak Misra, C.J.) Abhay Kumar ( Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
