Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC:137300 Court No. - 52 Case :- SECOND APPEAL No. - 1628 of 1982 Appellant :- Mushtaq Ahmad And Others Respondent :- Ram Raj And Others Counsel for Appellant :- A.K. Rathore,R.U. Ansari,S. Chaterji Counsel for Respondent :- A.K. Sinha,R.N. Yadav Hon'ble Mrs. Manju Rani Chauhan,J. Case is called out. None appears on behalf of the parties. Record shows that the case is listed in the category of oldest pending cases in the cause list, for priority hearing. A notice has been placed on the notice board specifically, mentioning that "old cases up to the year 2022 shall be taken up in the first round itself. In case of non-appearance, matter shall be dismissed as infructuous or otherwise, and in the cases, where the cause of action still survives, the concerned advocates are expected to mark them accordingly in the cause list. Failure to do so, may result in its dismissal as infructuous" but, neither the counsel for the appellants has appeared nor has the case been marked to indicate that the cause of action still survives. This matter is pending since 1982. It appears that either the appellants have lost interest in pursuing the matter or it has become infructuous. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed as infructuous.
