ORDER
Date : 12.10.2026 (K.R. Surana, J)
Heard Mr. M. Sharma, learned counsel for the applicants.
2. Mr. K. Rahman, learned counsel for the respondent and opposes the prayer for condonation of delay of 12 (twelve) days in filing the connected appeal.
3. By referring to the affidavit-in-opposition filed by the learned counsel for the respondent, it was submitted that the explanation for the delay is indicative of casual handling of the matter and therefore, there was deliberate negligence and laches on the part of the applicant in filing the connected appeal.
4. In view of the reasons assigned that some time has taken to take a decision to file an appeal in this application, the Court is inclined to accept same as good and sufficient cause which has prevented the applicants to file the connected appeal on time.
5. Accordingly, the prayer made in the interlocutory application is allowed and this application stands disposed of.
6. The Registry is directed to list the connected appeal in the admission column.
7. The Registry shall reflect the name of the learned counsel for the sole respondent in the cause list while listing the connected appeal.
