03 / 15.05.2026 Heard the parties. This criminal miscellaneous petition has been filed at the instance of the petitioners for restoration of Cr.M.P. No. 3151 of 2025 to its original file.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the Cr.M.P. No. 3151 of 2025 was dismissed vide order dated 06.11.2025 for non-compliance of the order of filing requisites for service of notice upon the opp. party no. 2 within the peremptory period. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that due to the inadvertence, the petitioner could not comply the order in time, which resulted in dismissal of Cr.M.P. No. 3151 of 2025. It is further submitted that the petitioner has very good grounds to agitate in this case and unless the same is restored to its original file, the petitioner will be highly prejudiced. Hence, it is submitted that Cr.M.P. No. 3151 of 2025 be restored to its original file.
Learned counsel for the opposite party no. 2 submits that the opposite party no. 2 has been harassed
by the petitioner by delaying the matter, hence, the opposite party no. 2 be compensated adequately in terms of cost. Considering the aforesaid submission of the
learned counsel for the petitioners, Cr.M.P. No. 3151 of 2025 is directed to be restored to its original file subject to payment of cost of Rs. 8,000/- by the petitioner to the opposite party no. 2 through her counsel appearing in the record within eight weeks, failing which, this conditional order shall not be given effect to and this criminal miscellaneous petition shall remain dismissed without further reference to the Bench. In case, the petitioner files the proof of payment of Rs. 8,000/- to the opposite party no. 2 through learned counsel for the opposite party no. 2 appearing in the record, then Cr.M.P. No. 3151 of 2025 be restored to its original file and Cr.M.P. No. 3151 of 2025 be listed after a week of the said payment before the appropriate bench.
This criminal miscellaneous petition is disposed of accordingly.
