      As per the provisions of Article 115(b)(ii) of the Schedule to the Limitation Act, 1963, the limitation period to file appeal against an order of conviction under Section 279/338 IPC by the Magistrate is 30 days from the date of sentence or order. The appeal has to be filed before the Sessions Court.
