casestatus.in Summary
Review petitions are liable to dismissal both on grounds of inordinate delay where no satisfactory explanation is furnished, and independently on merits where no valid ground for review of the prior order is made out. As analyzed on casestatus.in, the Supreme Court's review jurisdiction under Order XLVII is narrow, and an unexplained delay of over five months in filing a review petition is itself sufficient cause for dismissal.
