Jangir Singh v. Baldev Singh

2023:PHHC:073306

IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT

CHANDIGARH RSA NO.1864 OF 1993 (O&M) DATE OF DECISION : 17.05.2023 Jangir Singh and others ...Appellants versus Baldev Singh

...Respondent

CORAM : HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ARUN MONGA Present :

None for the parties.

ARUN MONGA, J. (ORAL) Matter was taken up for hearing on 22.03.2023, when learned counsel for appellants appeared and stated that all her efforts to contact the clients have been futile and being an old matter, Registry was asked to issue notice to appellants. Needful has been done. Office report reveals that appellants No.1 and 5 have died. However, none appeared for respondents No.2 to 4, despite service. Since neither legal heirs have taken any steps to get themselves impleaded, nor appellants No.2 to 4 have come forth to contest the appeal. Though one learned counsel for appellants appeared on last date of hearing but even she did not have power of attorney to appear on their behalf. It seems that by sheer effluxion of time and pendency of appeal for the last 30 years, they have lost interest in pursuing the appeal. In the premise, instant appeal is dismissed in default. Pending applications, if any, shall also stand disposed of. MAY 17, 2023 (ARUN MONGA) Shalini JUDGE Whether speaking/reasoned : Yes/No Whether reportable :

Yes/No SHALINI BHATIA 2023.05.25 16:52 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this order/ judgment
