Failure to represent in court leads to dismissal of petitions for non-prosecution.
Headnote:This matter concerns the dismissal of Criminal Miscellaneous Case No. 4756 of 2022 for non-prosecution. The petitioners, absent from the proceedings, failed to represent the case on three occasions, prompting the Court to conclude and dismiss the application. The critical issue revolves around the petitioners' unavailability after being duly notified. Court held that repetitions of no representation cannot justify continued litigation. Accordingly, the case is dismissed.
ORDER
Dated this the 12th day of December, 2025 The petitioners are absent. There is no representation. There was no representation for the petitioner on the last posting date also. Hence, this Crl.M.C is dismissed for non-prosecution.
