The court held that the delay may be condoned and any abatement, if any, is set aside.
Summary
The petitioners, legal heirs of the deceased appellants, filed a civil application seeking to be brought on record despite a delay of 203 days in filing. They requested the court to condone this delay and to set aside any abatement that might have been effected against them. The court examined whether procedural rules permitted condonation of such a delay and whether an abatement, if any, could be reversed. Finding no substantive impediment, the court allowed the application, thereby condoning the delay and setting aside any abatement. It further directed that the necessary amendment be effected within two weeks. No substantive factual dispute or detailed reasoning was recorded beyond the order.
