Reported in: (1984)1MLJ26

ORDERT. Sathiadev, J.1. In these revision petitions, it is contended that once a finding is given that the sufficient cause shown does not exist and that delay which has occasioned cannot be condoned, the Rent Tribunal had no jurisdiction to still condone the delay on extraneous factors or out of sympathetic considerations, as claimed by it.2. Mr. Yamunan, the learned Counsel for the revision petitioner, submits that in the light of the decision in Ramlal v. Rewa Coalfields Limited : [1962]2SCR762 , proof of sufficient cause is a condition precedent for the exercise of the discretionary jurisdiction vested in Court under Section 5 of the Limitation Act. In these matters, it is Rule 14 of the Rules framed under the Tamil Nadu Act XXV of 1955, which is akin to Section 5 of the Limitation Act that has been invoked. In the said decision, it was held that, if sufficient cause is not proved, then nothing further has to be done and the application has to be dismissed on that ground alone. The...
