    Summary: The Bombay High Court dismissed the writ petitions filed by builder-defendants Amit Kantilal Lunkad and others who sought to condone a 280-day delay in filing appeals against eviction decrees. The court found their justifications—including mental trauma from false criminal complaints, family emergencies, and financial constraints—vague and unsubstantiated, particularly given their status as renowned builders capable of engaging advocates. Critically, the court noted the defendants' prior negligence during trial (failing to cross-examine witnesses or present evidence) and their admitted rent default, finding the delay appeared intentional and that allowing the appeal would serve no purpose on merits. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
