Mr. M Ahmed, learned counsel has entered appearance on behalf of the opposite party No. 1. As service of notices on the opposite parties are completed, this matter is taken up for its disposal as Mr. Ahmed fairly submits that he has no objection in the event the delay of 176 days in filing the connected appeal against the judgment and order dated 01.03.2019 passed by the learned Member, MACT, Darrang, Mangaldai in MAC No. (D) 23/2016 is condoned.
I have perused the grounds stated by the applicant which is mainly due to inadvertent damage caused to the cheque issued by the applicant company to Page No.# 3/3
the learned conducting counsel in the High Court for deposit of the statutory fees. Subsequent thereto a fresh cheque was issued and in the meantime, Puja vacation had started and as such there was a delay of 176 days in filing the connected appeal.
I am satisfied with the grounds shown in this application. Accordingly, this application stands allowed thereby condoning the delay of 176 days in filing the connected appeal.
This petition is accordingly allowed.
Registry to register the connected MAC appeal and list for admission on 24.09.2021.
