Heard the parties.
This criminal miscellaneous petition has been filed by the petitioner with the prayer for restoration of Cr.M.P.. No.469 of 2026 to its original file which stood dismissed for non-prosecution on
01.05.2026.
It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioner that Cr.M.P. No.469 of 2026 stood dismissed for non-prosecution on 01.05.2026 by this Court. It is next submitted that the counsel was out of station on the said date, hence, the learned counsel for the petitioner could not appear before this Court when the said Cr.M.P.. No.469 of 2026 was called out, resulting in dismissal of the said Cr.M.P.. No.469 of 2026 for non-prosecution. It is next submitted that non-prosecution before this Court on 01.05.2026 was neither deliberate nor intentional. It is also submitted that the petitioner has very good grounds to agitate in the said Cr.M.P.. No.469 of 2026 and unless the same is restored to its original file, the petitioner will be highly prejudiced. Hence, it is submitted that the Cr.M.P. No.469 of 2026 be restored to its original file.
Learned counsel appearing for the State and the learned counsel for the opposite party no.2 has not raised any serious objection.
Considering the aforesaid submission of the learned counsel for the petitioner and the facts of this case, Cr.M.P. No.469 of 2026 is
directed to be restored to its original file at the same stage at which it was before its dismissal.
Registry is directed to list Cr.M.P. No.469 of 2026 before the concerned Bench after a week.
This Criminal Miscellaneous Petition is disposed of accordingly.
