What did the court decide?
Despite the appellant's name having been printed in the cause list, there was again no representation for the appellant; therefore the Second Appeal was dismissed for default, the connected Miscellaneous Petition (M.P.(MD)No.2 of 2014) was closed, and no costs were awarded. No substantive question raised by the suit or first appeal was adjudicated.
