Order No:-02 Dated:-07-11-2025
Heard the parties.
This civil miscellaneous petition has been filed by the petitioners with the prayer for restoration of W.P.(C). No.2663 of 2017 to its original file which stood dismissed for non-compliance of the order dated 25.07.2025.
It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioners that W.P.(C). No.2663 of 2017 stood dismissed for non-compliance of the peremptory order dated 25.07.2025 for depositing the cost of Rs.1,000/- by the petitioners with the Jharkhand State Legal Services Authority (JHALSA) within four weeks. It is next submitted that due to
inadvertent mistake on the part of the office of the conducting counsel of the petitioner, the said payment of cost of Rs.1000/- could not be deposited by the petitioners within the stipulated time; which resulted in dismissal of the said W.P.(C). No.2663 of 2017 for non-compliance. It is next submitted that non-compliance of the order dated 25.07.2025 was neither deliberate nor intentional. It is also submitted that the petitioners have very good grounds to agitate in the said W.P.(C). No.2663 of 2017 and unless the same is restored to its original file, the petitioners will be highly prejudiced. Hence, it is submitted that the W.P.(C). No.2663 of 2017 be restored to its original file.
Considering the aforesaid submission of the learned counsel for the petitioners and the facts of this case, W.P.(C). No.2663 of 2017 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 W.P.(C). No.2663 of 2017 before the concerned Bench after a week.
This Civil Miscellaneous Petition is disposed of accordingly.
