Holding
The Court held that the 67‑day delay may be condoned and the registrar’s order refusing registration is set aside, subject to the applicant removing all office objections within two weeks.
Summary
Anil Gopalrao Ghadge filed a civil application seeking condonation of a 67‑day delay in filing his Family Court Appeal (Stamp No. 8469 of 2026) and the setting aside of an order dated 05.05.2026 that refused registration of the appeal due to office objections. The applicant undertook to remove all office objections within two weeks. The Court, after considering the reasons for delay, condoned the 67‑day lapse and set aside the registrar’s order, subject to the applicant fulfilling his undertaking. Consequently, the civil application was allowed. The decision restores the appellant’s right to have his Family Court appeal registered, provided the objections are cleared within the stipulated period.
Issues considered
- What is the appropriate standard for condoning a delay of 67 days in filing a Family Court appeal?
- Whether the registrar’s order refusing registration of the appeal on the ground of office objections can be set aside pending removal of those objections.
