The petitioner had employed respondent No. 1 as a telephone operator in its hotel since 1.7.1977. An application for leave was submitted by him on 6.10.1984. He requested that the leave be sanctioned for the period from 17.10.1984 to 15.11.1984. The leave was sanctioned immediately.

S.A. Bobde, J.1. Rule, returnable forthwith.Ms Vasanti Kundar waives service for the respondents. Heard by consent.2. This petition is directed against the order of the Appellate Authority refusing to condone the delay of a period of about 30 days in filing the appeal.3. It is obvious from the application for condonation of delay and the order that the main reason advanced by the petitioner, viz., that he had given his papers to the advocate, but the advocate failed to prepare the appeal in time, has not been considered. The Appellate Authority has merely observed that there is no sufficient cause. The reason why the petitioner asked for condonation of delay and the Appellate Authority's views on the reason given by the petitioner ought to have been apparent from the order itself.4. Moreover, the Appellate Authority has committed a serious error in observing that the order of the Controlling Authority from which the appeal was filed was per incuriam and contrary to the judgment of the ...
