2017 (3) TMI 1687 - SC - Indian LawsDelay in disposal of the application for review which was kept pending for a span of four years. Held that:- An application for review, regard being had to its limited scope, has to be disposed of as expeditiously as possible - Though we do not intend to fix any time limit, it has to be the duty of the Registry of every High Court to place the matter before the concerned Judge/Bench so that the review application can be dealt with in quite promptitude. If a notice is required to be issued to the opposite party in the application for review, a specific date can be given on which day the matter can be dealt with in accordance with law. A reasonable period can be spent for disposal of the review, but definitely not four years. We request the High Courts not to keep the applications for review pending as that is likely to delay the matter in every court and also embolden the likes of the Petitioner to take a stand intelligently depicting the same in the application for condonation of delay. SLP dismissed.
