Disposal
DISPOSED OFF

Holding

The Court condoned the delay, permitted correction of the prayer clause, restored the writ petitions to their original position, ordered removal of office objections, and disposed of the civil applications.

Summary

The Aurangabad Bench of the High Court of Bombay entertained a series of civil applications and writ petitions filed by various applicants against the State of Maharashtra. The applicants sought relief including correction of the prayer clause and removal of office objections. The respondents raised objections on procedural grounds, particularly the delay in filing. The Court, after hearing counsel, exercised its discretion to condone the delay and allowed the correction of the prayer clause. Consequently, the writ petitions were restored to their original position and the Court ordered that the office objections be removed within four weeks, after which the civil applications were disposed.

Issues considered

  • Whether the Court may condone delay in filing civil applications and writ petitions.
  • Whether the prayer clause in a writ petition may be corrected after filing.
  • Whether office objections raised by the respondents should be removed.

Subjects

  • writ petition
  • civil application
