Kaushal Kishor Mishra v. State of U.P. and Anr.
Case brief
What is this about?
Dismissal for want of prosecution of a stale 2017 Section 482 application ('U/S 482' as printed; enacting statute not named in the text) before a single judge of the Allahabad High Court, Lucknow Bench, on 6.5.2025 (Neutral Citation 2025:AHC-LKO:26624). Cause: non-appearance of applicant's counsel (Rajesh Kumar listed as counsel; none attended) when the case was called out in the revised list; learned A.G.A./Govt. Advocate present for the State (Opposite Parties: State of U.P. and Anr.; applicant: Kaushal Kishor Mishra). Effect: interim order, if any, vacated; no substantive merits examined; useful only to show non-prosecution/vacation of interim protection, not for any legal proposition. Search terms: dismissal for want of prosecution; abandonment of application; interim order vacated; old case; Kaushal Kishor Mishra; State of U.P.; Om Prakash Shukla.
What did the court decide?
As no one appeared on behalf of the applicant to press the application and the matter was very old (pertaining to the year 2017), the application was dismissed for want of prosecution.
