However, this Court in order to give one more opportunity to the appellants, directed this matter to be posted under the caption 'for final hearing' today. Even today, the learned counsel for the appellants have not come forward to proceed with the appeal. Therefore, the second appeal is dismissed for nonprosecution with costs of Rs.1,00,000/- (Rupees One Lakh only) payable by the appellants to the Registry. In case the appellants have filed any application to restore the appeal, Registry is directed not to take the application on file unless the appellants deposits the said amount imposed by this Court.
