Litigant compelled to file suit/appeal during
summer vacations for enabling him to seek
some interim relief, which was imperative and
of utmost expediency to prevent irreparable
and irreversible loss and injury. Section 4 of
Limitation Act, 1908 gave such a litigant a
vested right to file the suit/appeal on the day of
the re-opening of the court, but if the litigant
sought some urgent relief during the closure of
court, he could not be expected to sit idle (till
the re-opening of the court) and watch
irreparable, colossal and irretrievable loss being
caused to him, and refrain from exercising his
right of filing suit/appeal for the purpose of
obtaining interim relief.
