IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY TESTAMENTARY AND INTESTATE JURISDICTION CHAMBER SUMMONS NO. 137 OF 2015 CHAMBER SUMMONS (L) NO. 30 OF 2015 IN
TESTAMENTARY PETITION NO. 26 OF 2013
Rajanikant Narayanbhai Patel...Petitioner
Versus
Yogeshkumar N. Patel…Defendant/
Applicant
Mr. Sachin P. Shetye, i/b Mr. Prashant Karande, for the Petitioner.
Mr. Uday Bobade, i/b Mr. Mukesh Subramaniam, for the Applicant.
CORAM: G.S. PATEL, J DATED: 25th April 2016
PC:-
1.The Chamber Summons is for condonation of 25 days’ delay
in filing a Caveat and 207 days’ delay in filing an Affidavit in
Support of it. The Affidavit in Support of this Chamber Summons
sets out that the original Caveat being defective, the Applicant
made repeated attempts to file it in the correct form. This resulted
in the delay. I do not think it would be appropriate to completely
non-suit a party on such grounds.
