Order No.04 Dated- 08.05.2026
Heard the parties.
This criminal miscellaneous petition has been filed at the instance of the petitioners for restoration of Cr.M.P. No. 2886 of 2021 to its original file.
Though notice has validly been served upon the opposite party no.2 yet no one turns up on behalf of the opposite party no.2 in-spite of repeated calls.
Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that Cr.M.P. No. 2886 of 2021 was dismissed for non-prosecution. It is next submitted that as the counsel for the petitioners could not mark the case in the
cause list, hence, he could not appear before this Court when the case was called out and the same resulted in dismissal of Cr.M.P. No. 2886 of 2021. It is next submitted that the petitioners have very good grounds to agitate in the said Cr.M.P. No. 2886 of 2021 and unless Cr.M.P. No. 2886 of 2021 is restored to its original file, the petitioners will be highly prejudiced. Hence, it is submitted that Cr.M.P. No. 2886 of 2021 be restored to its original file.
Considering the aforesaid submission of the learned counsel for the petitioners, Cr.M.P. No. 2886 of 2021 is restored to its original file to the stage at which, it was before its dismissal.
List Cr.M.P. No. 2886 of 2021 under the appropriate heading before the appropriate bench after a week.
