    The Patna High Court set aside the District Judge's order that had condoned the State's 22-year delay in filing an appeal against a 1991 decree. The court found the State's explanation—lack of knowledge until 2013—untenable, noting the Government Pleader was present when judgment was delivered and evidence showed state authorities were informed in 1992. The court held that such extraordinary delay cannot be excused by mere administrative lapses or negligence, and dismissed the State's appeal as barred by limitation.
