A perusal of the order sheets shows that vide order dated 28.11.2019 passed by a Coordinate Bench of this Court, notice was issued in the present matter with further observation that "in case the petitioner appears before the trial Court and apprises the Court about the compromise having been arrived at between the parties, the trial Court shall admit him on interim bail subject to his furnishing bail bonds and surety bonds to its satisfaction." Thereafter, on the next date of hearing i.e. 18.02.2020, none had appeared on behalf of the petitioner and it was observed that notice could not be issued in the matter for want of process fee. On the next date of hearing i.e. 17.08.2022, process fee was again not filed, however, learned counsel for the petitioner had submitted before the Coordinate Bench of this Court "that the petitioner has put in appearance before the trial court in deference to order dated DIVYANSHI 2024.08.31 17:23 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document
