Yogeshwar Dayal ( 1 ) THIS is an application for condonation ofdelay in filing Crl. R. No 285/77 in this court against the order dated 1 1/12/1975 passed by Metropolitan Magistrate, Delhi. The revision isrealy for enhancement of sentence for an alleged offence for having sold adulterated Dhania. The learned trial court has awarded the sentence of one yearwith a fine of Rs. 1000. 00 and in default imprisonment for six months. Thetrial Court had also convicted the respondent for selling Dhania withoutlicence and for which he was separately sentenced to rigorous imprisonment forthree months. The learned Sessions Judge in appeal maintained the conviction on the ground of adulteration but reduced the sentence to fine ofrs. 1000. 00 and imprisonment till rising of the court. The conviction regarhingselling Dhania without licence was however, set aside and the accused wasacquitted on that charge. The limitation period for filing the revision petitionis statutorily fixed at 90 days and it expired on 7/09/1977 after takinginto account the time take for obtaining the certified copy. The revision petition was however filed on 9/09/1977. ( 2 ) THE ground mentioned in the application is "that due to misplacement of the case file in the office of the Advocate for the petitioner, a delayof two days has occurred in filing the revision petition. The said delay is notintentional. " Mr. R. K. Mehta, junior of Miss Uma Mehta was introducedin the Vakalatnama as one of the counsel having been appointed by the Corporation also chose to accept the Vakalatnama. On behalf of the Corporationit was never signed by the Law Officer in his favour. It was signed only infavour of Miss Uma Mehta. After signing the Vakalatnama he signed thepetition and applications for and on behalf of Miss Uma Mehta and put it incourt. It is obvious that Mr. R. K. Mehta was not authorised by the Corporation even to file the petition. He has no authority to sign the petition. Hehas no authority consequently to file the petition in court and even filing of thepetition on 9/09/1977, was wholly unauthorised. ( 3 ) MISS Uma Mehta at the bar submits that the mistake was bonafide. May be the presentation valid. Till today no properly presented petition onbehalf of the Corporation is before this Court. The application for condonation of delay is accordingly dismissed.
