Condonation of delay failed where accident claims lacked dates and medical proof, leading to dismissal of the appeal.

Delay in filing the appeal was not condoned because the appellant's explanation of domestic difficulty and an accident was unsupported by evidence. The exact date of the accident was not shown, no medical records were produced, and the explanation did not satisfactorily account for the period beyond the normal filing time. The miscellaneous application was rejected, and the appeal stood dismissed as a consequence.
