ORDER
08.09.2026 I.A. No.29 of 2026
Order
05.
1. Heard learned counsel for the Petitioner, learned counsel for the Opposite Party No.1- Complainant as well as learned counsel for the State.
2. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the Petitioner that because of the circumstances, as stated in the I.A, the delay of 904 days has occurred in filing the restoration application.
3. And, on account of the same, on execution of NBW, the Petitioner was taken to custody and released on interim bail by order dated 04.08.2026.
4. Learned counsel for the Opposite Party No.1- Complainant, in this proceeding under section 138 of the N.I. Act, submits that the Petitioner has been a rank defaulter and hence, no leniency ought to be shown to him and it is his further submission that no rational explanation has been given explaining the delay. Hence, this application for condonation of delay is liable to be rejected.
5. On considering the rival submission and the fact that the Petitioner was taken to custody and remained incarcerated for about two months, on a perspicuous analysis of the materials on record, this Court condones the delay in filing the CRLMA.
6. The I.A. is accordingly disposed of.
