This miscellaneous petition has been filed by the petitioner with a prayer for restoration of Cr.M.P. No.961 of 2019 its original file which stood dismissed for non-prosecution on 23.08.2024. It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that Cr.M.P. No.961 of 2019 stood dismissed for non-prosecution on 23.08.2024 by this Court. It is next submitted that as the counsel for the petitioner was suffering from high fever and he also informed to other advocate to take adjournment in the said case but unfortunately when the said case was called out, the advocate was in another court, hence, no one appeared before this Court when the said Cr.M.P. No.961 of 2019 was called out resulting in dismissal of the said Cr.M.P. No.961 of 2019 for non-prosecution. It is next submitted that non-prosecution before this Court on 23.08.2024 was neither deliberate nor intentional. It is also submitted that the petitioner has very good grounds to agitate in the said Cr.M.P. No.961 of 2019 and unless the same is restored to its original file, the petitioner will be highly prejudiced. Hence, it is submitted that the Cr.M.P. No.961 of 2019 be restored to its original file. Learned Addl.P.P. appearing for the State has not raised any serious objection. Considering the aforesaid submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner, Cr.M.P. No.961 of 2019 is directed to be restored to its original file at the same stage at which it was before its dismissal. Registry is directed to list Cr.M.P. No.961 of 2019 before the concerned Bench after a week. This criminal miscellaneous petition is disposed of accordingly. (Anil Kumar Choudhary, J.) Animesh/
