Holding
The application is allowed, and the applicant shall file and serve the record of appeal within ten (10) days of the date of the delivery of this ruling.
Facts
Crawford Capital Ltd filed a notice of appeal in time but the notice was not served on the respondents due to a mistake in the Judiciary Case Tracking System (CTS) portal. The 1st respondent served a supplementary affidavit on 29th October 2024, necessitating the application for extension of time.
Issues
- Whether the application for extension of time is ripe for dismissal due to failure to serve the notice of appeal and failure to include the respondents' address of service.
- Whether allowing the application will prejudice the respondents.
Reasoning
The Court found the explanation for the delay satisfactory and determined that allowing the application will not prejudice the respondents.
Outcome
The application is allowed.
Orders
