The necessity of providing notice and a reasoned order before condoning delays in criminal proceedings is a fundamental aspect of ensuring fair trial rights under the Cr.P.C.
Compliance with the rules governing the presentation of appeals is essential, and failure to do so may result in the refusal to condone delays in filing appeals.
Substantial justice prevails over procedural irregularities; FIR closure was improperly enforced despite late filing.
The limitation period for filing a final report in criminal cases is strictly enforced, and any delay must be properly explained and condoned by the court to maintain the validity of the proceedings.
