Case Summary: MVC No. 506/2024 The court allowed the petitioner's application to condone a 30-day delay in filing a motor vehicle compensation claim under Section 5 of the Limitation Act. Although the petition was filed on December 8, 2024—beyond the 6-month statutory limit from the May 9, 2024 accident—the court held that Section 29(2) of the Limitation Act applies to motor vehicle claims, and the Motor Vehicles Act (being beneficial legislation) should receive liberal interpretation to prevent victim hardship. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
