Nalin Krishna Dutta & Ors. v. Subodh Chandra Nath
Case brief
What is this about?
Dismissal of a pending Second Appeal (SA 1117 of 1968, High Court at Calcutta, decided 08.05.2026, Coram: Arindam Mukherjee, J.) for want of instructions / non-prosecution by appellants; appeal dismissed without any order as to costs; connected application CAN/1/2003 (Old No: CAN/9276/2003) also disposed; advocates Naba Kumar Das and Arindam Banerjee for appellants; respondent Subodh Chandra Nath. Useful only as an example of disposal for appellants' loss of interest; contains no ratio on any substantive question of law.
What did the court decide?
The Court found that the advocates representing the appellants had not been able to receive any instruction despite best endeavour, and that it clearly appears the appellants were no longer interested in proceeding with the hearing of the Second Appeal. ¶8
