2and3 appearing for SMTI TUNTRI NARZARY and 4 ORS
BEFORE
HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE SOUMITRA SAIKIA
ORDER
12.03.2021 Heard Ms. R.D. Mazumdar, learned counsel for the applicant/ Insurance Company and Mr. J.U. Ahmed, learned counsel for the respondent Nos. 1, 2 & 3. None appears for the respondent Nos. 4 & 5 inspite of notices being recorded to have been duly served in the office notice This I.A. has been filed by the Insurance Company seeking condonation of delay of 157 days that has occurred in filing the connected statutory appeal.
Mr. J.U. Ahmed, learned counsel for the respondent Nos. 1, 2 & 3, however, does not object to the condonation of the delay as this is a connected appeal in respect of the same of order passed by the learned Tribunal in MAC Case No. 55/2014 in Judgment dated 12.07.2016 against which the claimant has also filed an appeal seeking enhancement of the award.
Having heard the learned counsel of both sides and having perused the grounds taken, I am satisfied that the application seeking condonation of delay of 157 days can be allowed and the same is allowed.
Page No.# 4/4
The I.A. stands disposed off.
Registry to register the connected MAC Appeal and list the same accordingly.
