Though the appeal has remained pending for almost 20 years, the office reports indicate that the appellant has failed to take steps to serve respondent No.33owner of the vehicle. Once the appellant has failed to take steps to serve respondents, the appeal is liable to be dismissed for non3 prosecution.

Accordingly the appeal stands dismissed.
