4.

2. This is an application for condonation of delay in filing the appeal.

In any case, the reasons for delay have been explained in paragraph-3 of the application to the effect that the certified copy of the impugned judgment was misplaced in the chamber of the counsel for the appellant.

5. Learned counsel for the respondent opposes the prayer for condonation by submitting that the delay has not been properly

explained.

6. After hearing learned counsel for the parties, this Court is inclined to accept the contentions advanced. The I.A. is allowed. The delay is condoned.
