Delay in filing civil revisions can be condoned if sufficient cause is shown under Section 5 of the Limitation Act, emphasizing a justice-oriented approach.
The delay in representation can be excused if the party makes a case for condoning the delay, and the Court has to ensure that justice does not suffer in such cases.
The court may condone delay in instituting applications if sufficient cause is shown, and any potential prejudice to the respondents can be compensated by awarding costs.
