WP No. 28924 of 2024, Madras High Court, decided 22-07-2026 by Hemant Chandangoudar, J. Dismissal of a certiorari writ petition for want of prosecution due to repeated non-appearance of petitioners' counsel (17.06.2026, 08.07.2026 and on the hearing date). The challenge to Tiruvannamalai Municipality proceedings Na.Ka.No.2188/2024/H1 dated 18.04.2024 and 22.05.2024 was not decided on merits. Connected WMP.Nos.31565 and 31566 of 2024 closed; no costs. Of value only as a procedural precedent on non-prosecution, not on substantive municipal law.
What did the court decide?
There was no representation for the petitioners on the earlier hearing dates of 17.06.2026 and 08.07.2026, and none appeared when the matter was called on the date of the order. ¶23
