1965 (9) TMI 78 - HC - Indian Laws

Summary

The High Court of Madhya Pradesh dismissed the second appeal as barred by time due to a delay in filing the appeal beyond the prescribed limitation period. The appeal was filed on the 169th day of the judgment, exceeding the allowable time frame. Despite efforts to exclude time spent obtaining copies of the judgment and decree, the appeal was found to be one day late. The court also refused to condone the delay, citing the inapplicability of the Limitation Act of 1963. Additionally, a deficit court fee payment further extended the delay, resulting in the dismissal of the appeal.
