Case Summary: The Supreme Court dismissed the Special Leave Petition filed by the Sub-Divisional Engineer against Patiram Kothuji Pudake on July 31, 2006. The petition was filed with a delay of 642 days from the High Court's order dated July 16, 2004, and the petitioner failed to show sufficient cause to condone this inordinate delay. The Court rejected the condonation application and, having heard arguments on merits, found no reason to interfere with the lower court's judgment, dismissing the petition on both grounds of delay and merits.
