Facts of the Case
An appeal was filed by appellants against the order after a delay of 577 days, hence, an application for condoning delay had been filed.
In the instant case, the Appellants sought to condone delay on the ground that they were travelling and thus, it took some time to engage an advocate, procure documents and thereafter, to file an appeal.
SAT Held
The SAT noted that the ground that they were travelling was vague ground that had been asserted without any documentary evidence. Since no sufficient cause had been given to condone the delay, the application for condonation was to be rejected.
