https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=460412 Bombay HC dismissed an application for condonation of delay in filing an appeal where the delay was attributed to advocate negligence. The court held that merely shifting blame to the advocate is insufficient grounds for condoning substantial delay. Despite applicants' claims of advocate neglect and involvement of government land, the court found no genuine or justifiable grounds for delay. The applicants failed to pursue the matter diligently even after multiple court opportunities, and their claim of learning about dismissal only 15 months later was unacceptable. The application was dismissed. en-us Thu, 07 Feb 2019 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 23 Jan 2025 19:45:57 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=460412 Bombay HC dismissed an application for condonation of delay in filing an appeal where the delay was attributed to advocate negligence.
