Collector Land Acquisition, Anantnag & ... vs Mst. Katiji & Ors on 19 February, 1987
18.Bare perusal of this provision specifies that firstly this is an enabling
provision and nothing more. It enables a Court to condone the delay,
subject to the Court being satisfied that there was "sufficient cause" for
the delay. The Court can only examine the submissions of the parties
on the basis of facts averred and made out in application for
14
CR no.50/2018
condonation. The Court cannot decide sufficiency of cause de hors the
facts pleaded and made out. Whether cause shown was sufficient or
otherwise, cannot be converted into a question of principle, as
attempted by learned counsel for petitioner-Board, on the basis of the
decision in the case of Collector, Land Acquisition, Anantnag (supra).
Thus, I have no hesitation in coming to conclusion that phrase
"sufficient cause" involves only questions of fact to be considered by
the Court dealing with an application for condonation of delay, and in
considering sufficiency of cause, no question of principle is involved,
except that a liberal view should be adopted in the examination and
interpretation of the facts which seek to establish.
Shyam Sundar Sarma vs Pannalal Jaiswal And Others on 4 November, 2004
25.There is also a submission on the part of learned counsel for respondent
no.1, and that submission has a substance, that logical sequitur of the
analysis made in the case of Shyam Sunder v. Pannalal Jaiswaland
(supra) is that an appeal along with an application for delay in filing
19
CR no.50/2018
that appeal, when dismissed on refusal to condone the delay, is a decree
within meaning of Section 2(2) of the Code of Civil Procedure, and in
ultimate analysis revision petition on hand fails as the same is not
maintainable.

The Reliable Water Supply Service Of ... vs Union Of India (Uoi) And Ors. on 21 January, 1971
4. Learned counsel for petitioner has stated that Appellate Court did not
appreciate explanation tendered by petitioners in preferring Appeal
beyond the period of limitation. Copy of judgement and decree is stated
to have been received by petitioners on 29th August 2015, which was
conveyed to counsel so as to file an Appeal, who for reason of frequent
strikes, particularly in the month of August and October, filed Appeal
late by a month, which period, as maintained by learned counsel for
petitioners, is a small interval and does not require any stringent
application. Learned counsel for petitioner, in support of his
submissions, has placed on Reliable Water Supply Service of India v.

Abdul Aziz Mir vs Suhail Nabi & Ors on 31 October, 2018
5. Per contra, learned counsel for respondent no.1 vehemently insists that
petitioner-Board has miserably failed before Appellate Court to
demonstrate sufficient cause for delay in preferring Appeal, inasmuch
as application for condonation of delay was totally incorrect vague,
false and baseless. According to him petitioner-Board being most
highest and responsible hierarchy of public servants, deliberately and
intentionally gave a false affidavit by submitting that they were having
no knowledge of judgement and decree notwithstanding the fact that
they participated in proceedings before Trial Court, submitted its
written statement, cross-examined witnesses, submitted Arguments
through their counsel, and heard judgement when learned Trial Court
pronounced the same in open Court in presence of counsels for parties.
Thus, the time against petitioner-Board started from the date of
judgement/decree i.e. 2nd July 2015 and that petitioner-Board
suppressed the date when it applied for certified copy of judgement and
decree; besides there was no change in standing counsel of appellant-
Board, who was all along Mr M.D. Parvaiz, Advocate, and he appeared
throughout in the suit and was also present at the time of
4
CR no.50/2018
pronouncement of judgement. So the legal presumption is that said
Advocate had informed petitioner-Board regarding judgement and
decree when it was pronounced by Trial Court. His next submission is
that the whole controversy relates only about correction of parentage
and petitioner-Board has unnecessarily dragged respondent no.1 by
protracting the matter. Learned counsel has relied upon Shyam Sunder
Sarma v. Pannalal Jaiswal and others, AIR 2005 SC 226; Abdul Aziz
Mir v. Suhail Nabi and others, SLJ 2018 (2) HC 760; D. Tarini Patro
and others v. M. Jagannath Rao, AIR 2018 Orissa 53.
