M/s.Empire Finance Co. Ltd., )..Respondent ---- Mr.P.S.Sahadevan for the appellants. ---- Coram : F.I.Rebello & R.S.Mohite,JJ Date : 28.01.2009. PC 1. This is a motion for condoning 691 days delay in filing of the appeal. On perusal of the affidavit in support of the motion, it is seen that the matter was sent for drafting appeal memo on 27.7.2007 and the draft ultimately came to be prepared in September-2008. A period of more than 1 year and 2 months cannot be said to be reasonable. Hence, cause shown does not amount to sufficient cause. Therefore, motion stands dismissed. Consequently, appeal papers to be filed. Refund of court fees as per rules. (R.S.Mohite,J) (F.I.Rebello,J)
