The client's question
"My appeal to the Supreme Court is 3 months late because my counsel fell ill and could not file on time. I want the delay condoned so my appeal is heard."
Under Indian law, courts routinely condone delay in filing appeals where "sufficient cause" is shown. Illness of counsel is a well-established ground — your 3-month delay is comparatively short, and the court is likely to grant relief.
You should file an application under Section 5 of the Limitation Act with medical records substantiating the illness. This is standard practice and success rates are generally favourable.
