Judgment & Decree
MUNIR A. SHEIKH, J.
By this common judgment we propose to decide Civil Petitions Nos.226 to 231-L of 2002 involving identical questions of law and facts.
2. These petitions are directed against the consolidated judgment dated 25-9-2001 of the Punjab Service Tribunal. Each petition is barred by 44 days. The only reason given in the application seeking condonation of delay was that the file continued moving from one department to another to determine whether the appeal should be filed or not. This ground has never been accepted as a sufficient ground for condonation of delay as per law declared by its Court in a number of cases.
3. Consequently the applications for condonation of delay are hereby dismissed, as a result of which the main petitions are also dismissed as barred by time and leave refused. S.A.K./S-218/S Leave refused.
