Second Appeal No. 291 of 1969, decided on 4th August 1970.
S. 14‑Claire in torts ‑Limita tion‑Condonation of delay‑‑Filing of application with Factory Inspector for a claim in tort‑Can by no stretch of argument be said to be a bona fide proceeding fit for condonation of delay under S. 14.
We are clearly of the opinion that the two Courts below clearly erred is law in condoning the delay arid holding the suit to tie in time.
On this view of the case, we feel it unnecessary to decide the other issues, and allow this appeal, and in result set aside the judgment and decree of bath the Courts below. Since the learned Counsel for tae appellant stated that he would not like to burden the respondent, who is a workman, with the costs of these proceedings, we make no order as to costs.
