ORAL JUDGMENT
The appellants have initially filed MFA. Vide order dated 01.04.2025, the appellants were permitted to convert MFA into MSA. Inspite of that, learned counsel for the appellants has not taken any steps to make necessary corrections. Therefore, in the preamble, still it is reflecting as MFA and not MSA.
2. Office has raised several objections.
3.
Learned counsel for the appellants prays for time.
4.
Order sheet dated 15.10.2025 reads as under:
"Learned counsel for the appellant prays for time. Office has raised as many as 8 objections, the same is not complied and the Court fee is not paid, even though the matter is listed for non-compliance of office objections for fifth 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."
5. 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
