Esha Bhattacharjee vs Mg.Commit.Of Raghunathpur Nafar ...

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of whether the Calcutta High Court's Division Bench was justified in condoning a delay of 2449 days in an appeal against an interim order under Article 226 of the Constitution. The Court emphasized that the delay in filing the appeal was significant and required a valid justification, ultimately holding that the Division Bench's decision to condone the delay was not warranted. Consequently, the appeals were allowed, and the orders of the Division Bench were set aside.
