Holding

The application for extension of time to file Notice of Appeal and Record of Appeal out of time shall proceed to hearing.

Facts

The respondent filed an application to strike out the notice of appeal before the applicant's application for extension of time was filed.

Issues

  1. Whether the application for extension of time to file Notice of Appeal and Record of Appeal out of time should be granted.
  2. Whether the application to strike out the notice of appeal should be heard first or after the application for extension of time

Reasoning

The court ruled that as long as the court decision on the application for extension of time is not final, the contention that there will be prejudice does not hold good. A single judge may proceed to hear the application for extension of time while an application to strike out notice is pending.

Outcome

The application for extension of time to file Notice of Appeal and Record of Appeal out of time shall proceed to hearing.

Orders

  • The application for extension of time to file Notice of Appeal and Record of Appeal out of time shall proceed to hearing.
