S.RAMATHILAGAM, J.
This Civil Miscellaneous Petition has been preferred by the claimant with the delay of 1527 days in filing the appeal. Both the petitioner and the respondents present.
- The learned counsel for the petitioner/appellant has contended
that the award was passed on 19.09.2014 and due to his illness and
continuous treatment for long period, he could not prefer the appeal in
time.
- On the other hand the learned counsel for the respondents contended that the delay of 1527 days on medical ground is without any any medical evidence. The petitioner has preferred this appeal after a
very long period, in spite of the findings of the Tribunal that there is no disability as ascertained by the doctor. Hence, this Civil Miscellaneous Petition with regard to the condonation of delay is not supported by any
medical evidence .
