Petitioners are aggrieved of the impugned order of the appellate Court on the solitary premise that at the time impugned order came to be set aside by the appellate Court, the main suit preferred by the respondents had already been dismissed by the trial Court for non-prosecution on 09.04.2025. 03. Mr. Rizwan, learned counsel for the respondents has fairly conceded that the impugned order after dismissal of the suit by the trial Court, does not sustain in the eyes of law. However, Mr. Rizwan submits that respondents have already approached the trial Court for restoration of the suit to its original position and in case the suit is restored, appellate Court be directed to re-consider the appeal preferred by the respondents in accordance with law, to which learned senior counsel for the petitioners has no objection. 04. In view of the above, present petition is allowed and the impugned order dated 21.08.2026, passed by the appellate Court is set aside. However, in case the suit preferred by the respondents is restored by the trial Court, the appellate Court shall re-consider the appeal preferred by the respondents, in accordance with law, after affording a reasonable opportunity of being heard to both the sides. 05.
