A writ petition may be dismissed for default when the petitioner's counsel remains absent on successive listing dates, indicating a failure to prosecute the matter.
Headnote:The petitioner sought relief through a writ petition before the High Court of Kerala. Due to the repeated absence of the petitioner's counsel on the scheduled dates, the matter could not be heard on its merits. The core issue before the court was the lack of representation for the petitioning party during the proceedings. The court observed that the consistent absence of legal representation impeded the judicial process. The writ petition is dismissed for default.
