Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the appellant's review petition regarding the delay in filing an appeal against the family court's decision on property ownership. The Court noted that the appellant failed to demonstrate sufficient cause for condoning the delay as required under the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, specifically Sections 13(1)(ia) and 13(1)(ib). The Court affirmed the findings of the family court that the appellant did not establish her claim to joint ownership of the properties, thus maintaining the lower court's ruling.
