2023 (8) TMI 43 - SC ORDERCondonation of delay - Delay in filing of refilling of appeal - Delhi High Court dismissing the appeals [2017 (2) TMI 1538 - DELHI HIGH COURT] on the ground of delay of 707 days in refiling - appellant(s) submitted that there was no delay in the filing of the appeals before the High Court but there was delay in refiling and High Court could have condoned the said delay in refiling but has instead dismissed the appeals - HELD THAT:- We find that the delay of 707 days has occurred in refiling and not in filing of the appeals. Therefore, in our view, the High Court ought to have condoned the said delay in refiling and heard the appeals on merits rather than dismissing the same without hearing on merits. In order to give an opportunity to the appellant(s) herein as well as the respondent(s) to seek hearing of the appeals on merits, the impugned order is set aside, the matter is remanded to the High Court while condoning the said delay of 707 days in refiling the appeals.
