    Case Summary: CMA(Delay)/93/2022 The Principal District Judge at Bharuch allowed Madhusudana Bhavanishankar's application to condone a 45-day delay in filing a civil appeal against a judgment dated 30.07.2022. The court found sufficient cause for the delay, accepting that the aged and infirm applicant was unable to file within the prescribed limitation period due to ill-health, and that this was not willful negligence or mala fide. Applying established principles that substantial justice should prevail over technical considerations under Section 5 of the Limitation Act, 1963, the court permitted the appeal to proceed on merits rather than be dismissed on technical grounds.
