THIS WRIT PETITION IS LISTED FOR ORDERS, THIS DAY, AN ORDER IS MADE AS UNDER: ORAL ORDER When the matter is called, the petitioners are not represented. When the matter is listed and is called out, the advocate must be present. The absence may affect the case. As could be seen from the daily order sheet, the petition was listed on 09.02.2024, on that day, a week’s time was granted to comply with the office objections. Again the petition was listed on 06.06.2024, on that day, three weeks time was granted to rectify the objections raised by the registry. Despite granting time, office objections are not complied with. The petition is listed today for orders regarding non- compliance of office objections for the third time. A perusal of the entire order sheet reveals that despite giving sufficient - 7 - NC: 2024:KHC-D:12907 WP No. 107455 of 2023 opportunities, the office objections are not complied with. Furthermore, the petition is filed in the year 2023. Now we are in the month of September 2024. The petition is pending for almost a year. As already noted above, when the matter is called, the petitioners are not represented. It appears that the petitioners are not diligent in prosecuting the petition. Hence, the Writ Petition is dismissed for non-prosecution and also for non-compliance of office objections. Sd/- (JYOTI MULIMANI) JUDGE MRP LIST NO.: 1 SL NO.: 61
