This Petition impugns order dated 19/07/2004, by which the Ad­Hoc District Judge­1, Sangli, has declined to condone delay of 1 year, 4 months and 6 days in preferring the Appeal against the Judgment and Decree dated 28/02/2011.

In the case of Shyam Sundar Sarma Vs. Pannalal Jaiswal and Ors.1, Hon'ble Apex Court has held that an Appeal, when dismissed on refusal to condone delay, is nevertheless a decision in the Appeal.

In view of the aforesaid, remedy under Article 226 or 227 of Constitution of India is not the appropriate remedy. 5.

Accordingly, the present Petition is dismissed. However, this shall not preclude the Petitioner from instituting appropriate proceedings to impugn the order dated 19/07/2014. (M. S. SONAK, J.) URS
