Das for the applicant ‘X’ who has filed this application under Section 5 of the Limitation Act with prayer for condonation of delay of 3 days. Learned counsel for the applicant has laid stress in his argument for an ex-parte disposal of the petition as the delay is for only 3 days and not for any fault of the petitioner. 2. It is submitted that for the fault of Advocate, the petitioner should not suffer. It is also submitted on behalf of the petitioner that the engaged counsel for the petitioner was not aware that under Section 19(2) of the Family Court’s Act, appeal is expressly barred and a revision petition has to be filed if a person is aggrieved by an order passed by the Family Court under Chapter-IX of the Code of Criminal procedure, 1973. 3. It appears that there was no malafide on the part of the petitioner. No inaction is also discernable on the part of the petitioner. Sufficient grounds have been shown. Page No.# 3/3 4.
