Case brief
What is this about?
Madras High Court; CONT P No. 2865 of 2025; N. Sathish Kumar J.; decided 22-01-2026; contempt petition under section 11, Contempt of Courts Act; alleged wilful disobedience of orders dated 28.04.2023 and 12.10.2023 in Application No. 2576 of 2023 in G.W.O.P.No. 230 of 2023; petition closed for non-appearance of petitioner and no representation for respondent; no costs.
What did the court decide?
When the matter was taken up for hearing, neither the learned counsel for the contempt petitioner nor the petitioner was present, and there was no representation for the respondent even though notice had been served and the respondent's name was printed in the cause list; in view of this, the Court closed the contempt petition with no costs. ¶21
