JUSTICE E.S.INDIRESH ORAL ORDER (PER: THE HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE E.S.INDIRESH) This Revision Petition is filed by the respondent in Criminal Miscellaneous No.282/2019 challenging the order dated 21.12.2020 on the file of Principal Judge Family Court at Ballari (for short, hereinafter referred to as ‘Family Court’). Since, there is delay of 823 days in filing the petition, the petitioner has filed IA No.1/2024 under Section 5 of Limitation Act. 2. Taking into consideration the fact that the petitioner herein had entered appearance before the Family Court however, not contested the matter on merits. The said ground urged in the affidavit accompanying application in IA No.1/2024 cannot be a ground to condone the inordinate delay of 823 days in filing the petition. As the petitioner has not given appropriate reasons for condoning inordinate delay in the affidavit accompanying application as ‘sufficient cause’ under - 3 - NC: 2025:KHC-D:1860 RPFC No. 100157 of 2024 Section 5 of Limitation Act, IA No.1/2024 is rejected. Consequently, Revision Petition is dismissed. SD/- (E.S.INDIRESH) JUDGE SMM LIST NO.: 1 SL NO.: 22
