Collector Land Acquisition, Anantnag & ... vs Mst. Katiji & Ors on 19 February, 1987
3. The assessee has filed the appeal which is barred by limitation by two
days. The assessee explained that the two day delay was due to calculation of
dates for the months of July and August both of which are 31 days. He relied on
the judgment in the case of Collector Land Acquisition Vs. MST Katiji 1987 AIR
1353 wherein it was held that if the appellant satisfies the Court that he had
sufficient cause for not preferring the appeal within the due date the same can
be condoned. Respectfully following the ratio of the judgment we hereby
condone the delay.
