.....RESPONDENTS
(MR. HARISH PAWAR, ADVOCATE FOR RESPONDENTS)
This appeal coming on for orders this day, the court passed
the following:-
ORDER
Heard on I.A. No.9512 of 2023 which is an application for condonation of delay filed under Section 5 of Limitation Act, 1963, in filing the appeal. The delay is of Nine Months Fourteen Days.
On perusal of the record, it was found that the first appellate court had passed the judgment and decree dated 25.11.2022 and the second appeal was filed after the delay of nine months and fourteen days on 08.12.2023. According to the appeal, he received certified copy of the judgment and decree of first appellate court on 13.07.2023 and thereafter he filed the appeal after the lapse of near about five months and has not explained the delay properly
and satisfactorily. In the case of Hamir vs. Abdul Samad AIR 2001 SC Page 3404, the Apex Court held that the court should not tolerate the lazy and negligent person in order to deliver the natural justice. In the case of Bank of India vs. Sanwai Singh reported in 1981 Vol.I Page 51, it was held that there is no space for negligent person in the courts of justice and it was found that the parties are trying to raise the point on the fault and his counsel is trying to take sympathy of court in order to prevent this. In the present case, the appellants stated that the counsel is not having the information of judgment and decree of First Appellate Court but perusal of the record shows that the appellant has received the certified copy of first appellate court on 13.07.2023 but inspite of that after lapse of five months, he filed the second appeal before the Court without having any proper or valid explanation.
So in the considered opinion of this Court, the appellants were unable to explain the inordinate delay properly and hence the IA No.9512 of 2023 for condonation of delay stands rejected. Consequently, the second appeal also stands dismissed.
