Default dismissal of writ petition W.P.S.T. 151 of 2024 (petitioner's side listed as Mr. Sourav Dam) against The State of West Bengal & Ors.: petitioner absent at the hearing and on an earlier occasion, apparently having lost interest; connected application disposed of; State represented by Tapan Kumar Mukherjee (ld. A.G.P.) and Somnath Naskar; no statute, precedent or substantive point engaged. Keywords: dismissal in default, non-appearance of petitioner, loss of interest, writ petition, State of West Bengal, Madhuresh Prasad, Prasenjit Biswas.
What did the court decide?
Since nobody appeared to represent the petitioner on earlier occasions and the petitioner has apparently lost interest in proceeding with the case, the writ petition is dismissed in default. ¶12
