Banshilal And ORS. v. Janki Bai And ORS.

HIGH COURT OF CHHATTISGARH, BILASPUR Order Sheet M.C.C. No.510 of 2015 Banshilal & Other Versus Janki Bai & Other 14/07/2015 Shri B.P. Banjare, counsel for the applicants. Shri Anant Bajpai, Panel Lawyer for the State. Learned counsel for the applicants is heard on restoration petition.

The applicant is seeking restoration of Second Appeal No.289/2006 which was dismissed for want of prosecution vide order dated 17.06.2015.

On due consideration of the submissions of the learned counsel for the applicant and the grounds taken in the restoration petition, I am satisfied that the absence of the applicant's counsel on 17.06.2015 when Second Appeal No.289/2006 was taken-up for hearing was based on bonafide grounds.

M.C.C. No.510/2015, therefore, is allowed and Second Appeal No. 289/2006 is restored to its original number. Sd/- (Sanjay K. Agrawal) Judge Laxmi
