Order No.03 Dated- 14.08.2026
Heard the parties.
This criminal miscellaneous petition has been filed at the instance of the petitioner for restoration of B.A. No.3297 of 2026 to its original file.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that B.A. No.3297 of 2026 was dismissed for non-compliance of the peremptory order of this Court dated 14.05.2026 whereby the petitioner was directed to deposit Rs.1,000/- with the Jharkhand State Legal Services Authority (JHALSA). It is next submitted that the learned counsel for the petitioner, unfortunately due to some inadvertence, could not deposit the same within the stipulated time, resulting in dismissal of the said B.A. No.3297 of 2026. It is then submitted that the non-compliance of the peremptory order dated 14.05.2026, passed in the said B.A. No.3297 of 2026 was neither deliberate nor intentional. It is next submitted that the petitioner has very good grounds to agitate in the said B.A. No.3297 of 2026 and unless B.A. No.3297 of 2026 is restored to its original file, the petitioner will be highly prejudiced. It is also submitted that in compliance of the said order dated 14.05.2026, the petitioner has deposited Rs.1,000/- with the Jharkhand State Legal Services Authority (JHALSA), the copy of which has been annexed with the supplementary affidavit dated 04.08.2026.
Hence, it is submitted that B.A. No.3297 of 2026 be restored to its original file.
Considering the aforesaid submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner, B.A. No.3297 of 2026 is restored to its original file to the stage at which, it was before its dismissal.
List B.A. No.3297 of 2026 under the appropriate heading after a week before the appropriate Bench.
