                                                            ORAL ORDER

1. The present application has been preferred for seeking condonation of delay of 61 days caused in preferring the appeal against the impugned judgment dated 27.02.2025 and award dated 04.03.2025 passed in M.A.C.P. No.142 of 2007.

2. Heard learned advocate for the applicant.

3. Learned advocate for the applicant, submitted that owing to the health issues and physical limitations of the applicant, he could not prefer the appeal within the period of limitation and a reasonable amount of time was consumed in arranging the requisite court fees and other expenses for preferring the appeal. Therefore, a delay of 61 days has occurred in filing the appeal.

                             C/CA/4762/2025                                     ORDER DATED: 15/09/2025

                                                                                                                undefined




4. Having considered the submissions of the learned advocate for the applicant and having regard to the health conditions of the applicant, who could not arrange the necessary funds for preferring an appeal within the period of limitation, in my considered opinion, constitutes a sufficient ground for condoning the delay. Thus, having regard to the facts and circumstances of the present case and in view of the law laid down by the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India in the case of Collector, Land Acquisition, Anantnag & Anr. v. MST. Katiji & Ors. [AIR 1987 SC 1353], the delay of 61 days caused in preferring the appeal is hereby condoned. The present Civil Application stands allowed. There shall be no order as to costs.
