Pebba Madan Mohan Goud, v. R.Rajeshwari,

SMT. JUSTICE T. RAJANI Criminal Appeal No.1089 of 2007 JUDGMENT:

The learned counsel for the appellant submits that his client is not in touch with him after he was informed that paper publication has to be taken out for the respondents, in lieu of service of notice. In that view of the matter, following the judgments rendered in K.G. KERALAKUMARAN NAIR Vs. STATE OF KERALA AND ANOTHER1 and RAM NARESH YADAV AND OTHERS Vs. STATE OF BIHAR2, wherein it is observed that the High Court has power to dismiss an appeal or any other criminal proceeding for default, this appeal is dismissed for non-prosecution.

As a sequel, miscellaneous applications, if any pending, shall stand closed.
