RSA-861-2000 (O&M) -:1:- IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH (206)
RSA-861-2000 (O&M)
Date of Decision:-17.09.2025 ROOR SINGH … Appellant Versus MEWA SINGH AND OTHERS ... Respondents **** CORAM:
HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE VIRINDER AGGARWAL Present:- None for the appellant. **** VIRINDER AGGARWAL
, J . (Oral)
1. Despite repeated calls, no one has appeared on behalf of the appellant. This is an old appeal, which has remained pending for an extended period, further reveals that on the last ‘two consecutive dates’ as well, there was no representation for the appellant. Such persistent non- appearance demonstrates a clear lack of diligence and indicates an apparent disinterest on the part of the appellant in pursuing the proceedings.
2. In the circumstances, it would serve no useful purpose to keep this appeal pending indefinitely. The time of the Court is a valuable public resource and cannot be expended at the instance of a litigant who has exhibited complete indifference toward the prosecution of the matter. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of prosecution, with liberty reserved to the appellant to seek revival, if any cause of action arises, by GAURAV SOROT 2025.09.18 09:16 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document
