DATE : 06/09/2023 Present application is filed for condonation of delay in filing second appeal. There is delay of 351 days in preferring second appeal. The date of judgment appears to be 12/12/2019. The period of ninety days expired on 12/03/2020. In view of the direction by the Hon'ble Apex Court's order, in such cases where the limitations would have expired during the period between 15/03/2020 till 20/02/2022, notwithstanding the actual balance period of limitation remaining, the delay has to be condoned. Here the period of limitation expired on 12/03/2020. However, though application is opposed, considering the Covid period, it would be in the interest of justice to condone the delay in filing second appeal.
