2. The present petition has been preferred for the grant of following relief(s):

"for review of the order dated 09.12.2021 passed by the Bench of Hon'ble the Chief Justice in Miscellaneous Judicial Case No.

Patna High Court C. REV. No.49 of 2022(4) dt.03-07-2025 2/3 1278 of 2017, whereby and whereunder the said case filed for restoration of Second Appeal No. 268 of 2010, has been dismissed."

3. The Court on 09.02.2021 took note of the fact that Second Appeal No. 268 of 2010 (Sher Mohammad Khan vs. Anish Khatoon and Ors.) despite being filed in the year 2010, remained defective for one and half year inasmuch as the defect pointed out by the Registry from time to time was never cured. The matter was later dismissed pursuant to the peremptory dated 10.07.2014.

4. Three years later, MJC No. 1278 of 2017 was filed. The Court took up the matter and vide an order dated 09.12.2021 having taken note of the fact that the different paragraphs of the petition does not explain the reasons for removal of the defect as also the delay in filing the application, in that background, after observing that the litigant is not an illiterate/rustic person, the restoration petition was dismissed.

5. This Court is in complete agreement with the order in question. The aforesaid development clearly show that the petitioner only wanted to linger the matter. An appeal was preferred in the year 2010, it remained defective for one and half year, was dismissed in the year 2014, he took another three

Patna High Court C. REV. No.49 of 2022(4) dt.03-07-2025 3/3 years to file restoration petition without any averment in it to show his bonafide.

6. In that background, Civil Review stands dismissed.
