This is a Motion for condoning 804 days delay in filing of the appeal. A perusal of the affidavit in support indicates that the file was sent to the Ministry of Law for drafting an appeal memo on 14.2.2003 but the draft appeal memo was received from Ministry of Law on 19.5.2004. A period of 1 year and 2 months for drafting appeal memo cannot be said to be reasonable. In our view, the cause shown does not amount to sufficient cause and thus Motion stands dismissed. INCOME TAX APPEAL (L) NO.734 OF 2005 . As the Motion for condoning delay is dismissed, Appeal also stands dismissed.
