      In case of conviction by a Magistrate court (Metropolitan Magistrate in this case), how much is the limitation period for filing appeal in the Sessions Court?

      The period of limitation for filing appeal to the Sessions Court against an order of conviction passed by the Magistrate court (whether Judicial Magistrate or Metropolitan Magistrate) is only 30 (thirty) days.
