P.C. 1. Though the reasons disclosed in the affidavit filed in support of the Motion for condonation of delay cannot be strictly called sufficient cause in view of the two considerations, (i) that the cross-objections are filed by a local authority and (ii) that the local authority is willing to pay costs, in our opinion, the delay deserves to be condoned.
