1) LIMITATION

The petition of appeal on the basis of the certificate by High Court have to be presented within sixty days from the date of grant of the certificate of fitness. But in computing the period of limitation, time spent in obtaining a copy of the certificate and the order granting the said certificates excluded. Furthermore, if the petition of appeal is delayed, the person filing the appeal may seek condonation of delay from the Supreme Court by explaining the reasons for the delay.

2) One should reply to petitioner point to point wise as a respondent.

1. Sir you have to contest first the condonation of delay application filed by them, see there is delay of very few days it would be allowed so you have to contest on merits of case though reply on delay has to be filed.

2.Sir you can forst file reply to delay if delay is condoned then after that reply to main appeal can be filed.

3. You have to mention limitation also and para wise reply also need to be give.

Further in case no delay condonation application filed by them you can take same as ground in your reply and can pray before court to reject the appeal on same ground.

1. The appeal has to be contested on merits.

2. If the appeal has been filed beyond the period of limitation then the court will firstly hear the appellant on the point of condonation of delay.

3. Engage a lawyer for the appeal. Seek permission of the court to file your reply to the application for condonation of delay.

You can oppose its acceptance on the ground of limitation. But i think appellant would have submitted condonation of delay.

If such is the case then you will need to answer to the appeal.
