Appellants: Ram Kishan and Anr. - unrepresented, no one appeared. Respondents: Naresh Kumar and Ors. - Kapil Aggarwal, Advocate. Prior order dated 02.07.2025: notices duly served but appellants absent; adjourned to 24.07.2025 and listed in Urgent List. Outcome: appeal dismissed for non-prosecution; copy of order to be sent to appellants by Registry. No statutes cited; no precedents cited; no quantum.
What did the court decide?
The appeal was ordered to be dismissed for non-prosecution because, even after the earlier adjournment of 02.07.2025 with notices duly served, no one appeared for the appellants again, and the Court concluded they were not interested in pursuing the matter; a copy of the order was to be forwarded to the appellants by the Registry.
