that he had misplaced the certified copies. Again, he says that he was ill. He has not stated the nature of his illness and where he had taken the treatment. Everything has been stated in a vague. The delay of 667 days is huge and inordinate. Even if leniency is given for a drafting, yet when it is not supported by any evidence and when he already had the certified copies in his hand, he was only require to give necessary instructions to the Advocate to whom he wanted to engage. Another fact which we cannot forget is that along with his sons, the plaintiff has filed Regular Civil Suit No.82 of 2016 before learned Civil Judge Senior Division, Jalna. That means, at one place, he was prosecuting the matter and at another place, he says that he is suffering from jaundice. Under such circumstance, the application doesn’t appear to be bona fide. The ratio laid down in Kamalbai Narasaiyya Shrimal and another (Supra) is applicable here. When no reasonable much less sufficient ground has been shown to condone the huge and inordinate delay, the application deserves to be dismissed. Accordingly, it is dismissed.
