Vikash Chandra Srivastava v. Prakash Chandra and Ors.
Case brief
What is this about?
Allahabad High Court, Lucknow Bench (Matters Under Article 227 No. 7340 of 2025, decided 08.01.2026, Subhash Vidyarthi, J.). Petitioner Vikash Chandra Srivastava sought a direction under Article 227 to the Civil Judge, Junior Division, Kunda, Pratapgarh for speedy disposal of Regular Suit No.199 of 2024 (perpetual injunction suit filed 16.02.2024). Petition dismissed: order sheet showed no indication of service of summons on defendants, so no ground for expedition direction at this stage.
What did the court decide?
Since the order sheet of the suit annexed with the petition does not indicate whether summons have been served upon the defendants till date, there is no good ground to issue any direction for expeditious disposal of the suit at this stage. ¶10
