In Brief
Prabhat Chandra Das sought review of an earlier Supreme Court order that had dismissed his Special Leave Petition for inordinate delay of 1213 days. The Review Petition itself was filed 987 days after the original dismissal. The Court found the explanation for the delay unsatisfactory and refused to condone it, dismissing the Review Petition on grounds of delay without examining the merits of the underlying claim.
