Office has raised as many as 14 objections. Inspite of the same, the office objections are not complied with and also the court fee is not paid, even though the matter is listed for non-compliance of office objections for fourth time. I do not find any reason to adjourn the matter. However, to afford final opportunity, as a last chance, list this matter on 05.11.2025." 3. The matter is listed for fifth time for compliance of office objections. None of the office objections have been complied with and there is no progress in the matter. It appears that the appellant is not interested in prosecuting the matter. - 3 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:44745 MSA No. 55 of 2025 4. Hence, the appeal is dismissed for default i.e., for non-prosecution.
