RESPECTED SIR,
PSE INTIMATE THE TIME LIMIT FOR FILLING THE CONTEMPT PETITION IN THE HON'BLE HIGH COURT. SINCE THE HIGH COURT OF LUCKNOW BENCH HAS ORDERED( REG: COMPASSIONATE APPOINT UNDER DYING IN HARNESS RULE TO GOVT OF UP) IN W/P NO 1513/2007 THAT COMPLY THE COURT ORDER WITHIN TWO MONTH BUT LAPS OF ONE YEARS NEITHER STATE GOVT HAS COMPLY THE HIGH COURT ORDER DTD 11/08/2010 NOR ANY REPLY HAS BEEN RECEIVED FROM THE DEPARTMENT.
COURT ORDER IS ATTACHED HERE FOR READY REF
PSE SUGGEST ME WHAT CAN I DO SIR AND WHAT IS THE TIME LIMIT FOR FILLING THE CONTEMPT PETITION.
THANKS YOU
RAHUL

There is no time limit. The moment the order is violated the contempt should be filed within the reasonable time.
Long delay would definitely benefit the contemner to take resort to the rule of waiver or acquiescence.
