Court's or Judges Order =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Mr. A.P.Wachasunder, Advocate for Appellant-applicant. Mr. A.J.Pophaly, Advocate for the Respondent No.1. C ORAM : F. M. REIS, J. DATED : 11th JANUARY, 2010. Heard learned counsel for the appellant- applicant and the respondent. This is an application for condonation of delay of 369 days in filing the First Appeal. The main ground for the delay has been on account of poverty of the applicants in approaching this Court within the time prescribed. The said facts have been stated on affidavit by the applicants. The learned counsel for the respondent strongly opposes the application for condonation of delay. He further states that the insurance company has also preferred an appeal against the impugned 2 award dated 13/5/2008, which according to him, has been admitted by this Court. In the facts and circumstances of the case and considering the statements made on oath, I find that the applicants are entitled to get the delay condoned as there are no allegations of any malafide on the part of applicants in filing the present First Appeal belatedly. In view of above, the delay of 369 days in filing the First Appeal is condoned. Civil Application is allowed and disposed of accordingly with no order as to costs. JUDGE. Diwale
