Learned senior counsel for the respondents has objected the petition seeking condonation of delay.

The delay in filing is of 266 days. It is well settled proposition of law that when substantial justice and technical considerations are pitted against each other, the cause for substantial justice should be given greater weightage.

Satisfied with the reasons stated in the accompanying affidavit, the delay of 266 days in filing the appeal is condoned.

This miscellaneous petition is ordered accordingly.

The Registry is directed to number the appeal and list the same next week, if it is otherwise found to be in order.
