Heard Mr. V.K. Barooah, learned counsel, appearing for the applicant. None appeared for the respondent despite taking time twice for filing objection against the petition for condonation of delay. Name of the counsel appearing for the respondent is also reflected in the cause list. However none appeared on behalf of the respondent nor has filed any objection.

     This is an application for condoning the delay of 85 days in preferring the accompanying appeal. We have perused the statements made in the application. The grounds for delay has been explained at paragraph 7 of the application. We have found that sufficient causes have been shown for not preferring the appeal in time. Thus, considering the statements made in the application, particularly, statements made on oath at paragraph 7 of the application, also for the ends justice, delay in preferring the accompanying appeal is condoned.

     Misc Case is allowed and disposed of accordingly.
