What is this about?
Non-prosecution dismissal of Regular Second Appeal RSA-4515-2019 (O & M), Suresh Pal v. Chaman Lal, Punjab & Haryana High Court at Chandigarh, Nidhi Gupta J. (oral), decided 22.08.2025. Appeal against concurrent lower-court findings dismissing a permanent-injunction suit; appellant deceased, legal representatives inactive, arguing counsel never appeared, five adjournments on proxy counsel's request; pending applications disposed. No statutes or cases cited.
What did the court decide?
The appellant exhibited an utterly casual and careless attitude in the pursuit of the litigation; valuable public time of the Court was expended affording opportunities, yet even the legal representatives of the appellant are not trying to pursue the appeal or contact the arguing counsel. ¶20
