THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE GHULAM MOHAMMED CIVIL REVISION PETITION NO.6333 OF 2009 ORDER: The petitioners filed this revision under Section 115 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, inter alia, seeking to assail the correctness of the order dated 01.12.2009 in I.A.No.2836 of 2009 in an unnumbered A.S. on the file of the District Judge, Guntur, in dismissing the application filed under Section 5 of the Limitation Act, 1963, seeking to condone the delay of 615 days in filing the appeal against the judgment and decree dated 13.06.2007 in O.S.No.1789 of 2005 on the file of the Principal Junior Civil Judge, Guntur. The suit is for specific performance of agreement of sale and the same was decreed on 13.06.2007. Against the said decree, the petitioners filed the appeal with a delay of 615 days. The Court below dismissed the application on the ground that there were no sufficient reasons to condone the huge delay of 615 days. The petitioners stated that they are not aware of the proceedings as they settled the matter before the Lok Adalath. In fact, the Lok Adalath did not consider the said compromise. In the circumstances stated above, the right of appeal exists to the petitioners, which cannot be denied. However, since the delay is inordinate, the same can be condoned by imposing costs. Accordingly, the Civil Revision Petition is allowed and the order dated 01.12.2009 is set aside. Consequently, I.A.No.2836 of 2009 is allowed and the delay of 615 days is condoned on payment of Rs.5,000/- {Rupees five thousand only} to the respondent within a period of one week from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. The Court below is directed to dispose of the appeal within a period of six {6} months from the date of taking cognizance. _____________________ (GHULAM MOHAMMED, J) 18th March 2011 RRB
