Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the extension of limitation periods for legal proceedings due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Initially, the court had extended the limitation period from March 15, 2020, to accommodate litigants facing difficulties. However, with the improvement in the pandemic situation and the resumption of court functions, the court decided to end the extension of limitation, indicating that the initial order had fulfilled its purpose.
