By this Notice of Motion the Appellant is seeking condonation of 224 days delay caused in filing the Appeal, which is over and above the prescribed statutory period of 120 days. Perusal of the affidavit in support shows that the delay was caused due to non-availability of Court fee stamps and for other reasons beyond the control of the Appellant’s office including that of administrative difficulties and the voluminous work etc. The aforestated reasons given by the Appellant however does not appear to be justifiable. No sufficient cause is shown for condonation of delay. Hence, the Notice of Motion stands dismissed. 2. In view of dismissal of Notice of Motion, the ITXA (L) No.1055/2007 also stands dismissed.
