The Court : These two applications, being GA 234 of 2017 and GA 236 of 2017, have been filed for condoning the delay in preferring the appeal. The delay is of 16 days. On perusing the reasons mentioned in the applications, we find that they are sufficient and plausible. The delay is, therefore, condoned. The applications are allowed.
These appeals [APOT 21 of 2017 and APOT 20 of 2017] arise from two orders both dated 9th December, 2016 passed in two applications respectively being GA No. 2845 of 2016 and GA No. 2846 of 2016 filed in CS No. 315 of 2012.
APOT 21 of 2017 has been filed against GA No.2845 of 2016 for appointing the appellant as the guardian of Jyoteshwar Prasad Singh Deo, who is mentally challenged. APOT 20 of 2017 has been filed against GA No.2846 of 2016 for appointing the appellant as guardian of Jairudra Prasad Singh Deo, who is a minor.
We have already permitted the appellant to be appointed as the guardian of her aforesaid two sons in the appeals, that is, APOT 24 of 2017 and APOT 25 of 2017. Therefore, these appeals, that is, APOT 20 of 2017 and APOT 21 of 2017, are also allowed. The order of the learned Single Judge is set aside.
