Hence, the said mistake was bonafide and the petitioner wants to contest the case on merits, thus the instant Cr.M.P. may be allowed. 3. On due consideration and for the reasons mentioned in the restoration application, instant Cr.M.P is hereby allowed. 4. Accordingly, the Registry is directed to restore Acquittal Appeal No.392/2019 (Ashok Kumar Sharma vs. Uttam Kumar Deshmukh) in its original number and list this case immediately after restoration.
