What is this about?
Patna High Court oral order, Justice Mohit Kumar Shah, dated 22-11-2024; MJC No.522 of 2020 in CWJC No.21073 of 2018; petitioner Sunil Kumar vs State of Bihar (Food and Civil Supplies) and Bhojpur district supply officials; dismissal for non-prosecution / want of prosecution due to petitioner's absence despite repeated calls; no statutes or precedents cited; no monetary quantum.
What did the court decide?
Since nobody appeared for the petitioner despite repeated calls, the petitioner appears to have no interest in prosecuting the petition; accordingly the Court held it had no option but to dismiss the petition for want of prosecution. ¶17
