ORDER

1. KARAM ELAHEE CHAUHAN, J. This petition is barred by 33 days according to the office note but 20 days according to the learned, counsel for the petitioner. The learned counsel has prayed for condonation of delay because according to his instructions, the Mukhtar of his client had died and for this reason she was not in a position to keep a watch over this case. It is not disputed that the Mukhtar died during the pendency of the appeal in the High Court, and, therefore, the plea that the case could not be attended to is not correct inasmuch as it was after his death that the appeal was taken up by the High Court and was duly pursued and attended to by her counsel. Finding no sufficient cause for condonation of delay. The petition is dismissed as time-barred.
