Home Dictionary Name: within such period

Within such period

Within such period, means within the period which ends with the last day of limitation prescribed. In other wards, in all cases falling under s. 5 what the party has to show is why he did not file an appeal on the last day of limitation prescribed. That may inevitably mean that the party will have to show sufficient cause not only for not filing the appeal on the last day but to explain the delay made thereafter day by day. In other words, in showing sufficient cause for condoning the delay the party may be called upon to explain for the whole of the delay covered by the period between the last day prescribed for filing the appeal and the day on which the appeal is filed. To hold that the expression 'within such period' means during such period would, be repugnant in the context, Ram Lal v. Rewa Coalifieds Ltd., AIR 1962 SC 361 (364): (1962) 2 SCR 762. (Limitation Act, 1963, s. 5)...

Access

Access, approach, or the means of approaching. The presumption of a child's legitimacy is rebutted, if it be shown by strong, distinct, satisfactory, and conclusive evidence, see Atchley v. Sprigg, (1864) 33 LJ Ch 345, that the husband-whether before or after marriage-had not access to his wife within such a period of time before the birth, as admits of his having been the father. 'If a husband have access, although others, at the same time, are carrying on a criminal intimacy with his wife, a child born under such circumstances is still legitimate': per Alderson, J., in Cope v. Cope, (1833) 5 C&P 604. Neither husband nor wife is admissible as a witness to prove non-access, Goodright v. Moss, (1777) 2 Cowp p. 594. See also Poulett Peerage Case, 1903 AC 395, and Russell v.
