Shaffique, J.

C.M.Appln.No.687/2009 is an application to condone delay of 596 days in filing the appeal. It is stated in the affidavit that after receiving the judgment, the same was placed before the concerned Government Pleader and legal opinion was sought. Thereafter steps were taken for filing the appeal and in the process, there occurred a delay of 596 days.

Having regard to the fact that there is no satisfactory explanation, we do not think that delay in filing the appeal requires to be condoned. Hence, the delay petition is dismissed. Consequently, the writ appeal shall stand dismissed. Sd/- ASHOK BHUSHAN, CHIEF JUSTICE Sd/- A.M. SHAFFIQUE, JUDGE Rp
