Clause 50

The Court of Criminal Appeal may in its discretion, on the application of any person desirous of appealing who may be debarred from so doing by reason of his not having observed some formality or some requirement of this Act, permit an appeal upon such terms and with such directions as it may consider desirable in order that substantial justice may be done in the matter, and may, for such purpose, enlarge any period of time prescribed by section 45 or 47 of this Act.
