    Summary The petition for condonation of delay in filing an appeal by the State of Gujarat was rejected. The court held that the State cannot claim special privilege under Section 5 of the Limitation Act due to administrative delays, and dismissed the alternative argument about delay being condoned in a related matter. The case is adjourned to 25.06.2026 for the deponent to justify the 738-day delay and clarify deposit of decretal amount; no stay has been granted on the impugned judgment.
