ORDER
20.02.2023
Heard Mr. B. D. Deka, learned counsel for the applicant.
The present Interlocutory Application is filed under Section 5 of the Limitation Act, 1963 for condonation of delay of 739 days in preferring the connected revision petition against the impugned judgment dated 28.05.2019, passed by the learned Civil Judge, Kamrup (M) at Guwahati in Title Execution No. 23/2016, whereby the prayer of the applicant to file an application under order 21 Rule 99 of the CPC was rejected. Accordingly, the connected revision petition was filed under Article 227 of the Constitution of India.
As no appeal lies against the order, the said application was filed under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. There is no provision in Limitation Act, prescribing any period of limitation for preferring an application under Article 227 of the Constitution of India.
In that view of the matter, the present application cannot be entertained. At Page No.# 3/3
this stage, Mr. B. D. Deka, learned counsel for the applicant submits that initially he did not file any application for condonation of delay, however, the Filing Section is insisting upon filing an application under Section 5 of the Limitation Act in case of revision petition under Article 227 of Constitution of India.
Be that as it may, Registry cannot insist upon an application under Section 5 of the Limitation Act so far relating to an application under Article 227 of the Constitution of India. Accordingly, the present I.A. is closed.
Registry to register the connected revision petition and list this matter in Motion column in the next week.
