BENCH AT AURANGABAD 1071 CIVIL APPLICATION NO.3530 OF 2019 IN SA/558/2017 SUNDRABAI GUNDU KARNURE AND OTHERS

VERSUS

ASHOK VENKATRAO KARNURE AND OTHERS ....

Mr. J. M. Murkute, Advocate for applicants.

Respondents No.4A to 4E served.

...

CORAM : SMT.VIBHA KANKANWADI, J.

DATE : 14-06-2019.

PER COURT :

1.

Present application has been filed for the recall of order passed by this Court on 06-02-2019, to condone the delay of 170 days in bringing the legal representatives of present respondent No.4. 2.

It appears that, respondent Babu s/o Gajaba Karnure expired on 07-06-2018. Thereafter, the applicants had filed an application before this Court seeking directions to the Sarpanch to issue death certificate. In the said civil application, statement was made by Sarpanch that he will issue certificate and therefore that application came to be disposed of, and it is stated that immediately thereafter the applicants obtained the death certificate, however, there is delay of 170 days. In the

CA 3530-2019 meantime the application as well as appeal was dismissed by order dated 06-02-2019.

3.

Heard both sides.

4.

Perusal of the order dated 06-02-2019 would show that, the applicants had unnecessarily filed Civil Application No.13497 of 2018 for directions to the Sarpanch, when in fact they ought to have gone to the Grampanchayat Office and obtained the death certificate on payment of requisite charges. In spite of granting sufficient time to approach the concerned authority, when death certificate was not obtained by the applicants, the appeal as well as application was dismissed on that day as against present respondent No.4. In fact in this application also there is absolutely no reason given by the applicant for not approaching the Grmpanchayat office even after the disposal of the Civil Application No.13497 of 2018. However, taking into consideration the fact that, now they have obtained the death certificate and they are ready to bring the legal representatives on record, the said order passed by this Court on 06-02-2019 deserves to be recalled. At the same time for taking unnecessary time, cost are require to be saddled on the applicants while condoning the delay. Hence the order.

CA 3530-2019
