more details needed.
Normally no condonation for filing Written statement.
When the defendant has already been set exparte, then he must file a petition to set aside the exparte order along with the written statement. In that case only, if there is a delay means they can file a petition to condone the delay

Pl refer to Salem Bar Association case. In this case, Supreme Court held that the time limit prescribed under amended CPC is not a mandatory one but a procedural one and can be condoned by the court if cogent reasons are shown.
I am sure this judgement will solve your problem.

No need for application for condonation of delay in filing WS.
Still want to give application; use S.151 C.P.C. as weapon.
