RANCHI, India, Feb. 10 -- Jharkhand High Court issued the following order on Jan. 9:
Heard the parties.
This civil miscellaneous petition has been filed by the petitioners with the prayer for restoration of W.P.(C) No.4048 of 2017 to its original file which stood dismissed for non-prosecution on 28.07.2025.
It is submitted by the learned counsel for the petitioners that W.P.(C) No.4048 of 2017 stood dismissed for non-prosecution on 28.07.2025 by this Court. It is next submitted that, the learned counsel for the petitioners could not mark the case in the cause list due to inadvertence, hence, the learned counsel for the petitioners could not appear before this Court when the said W.P.(C) No.4048 of 2017 was called out, resulting in dismissal of the said W.P.(C) No.4048 of 2017 for non-prosecution. It is next submitted that non-prosecution before this Court on 28.07.2025 was neither deliberate nor intentional. It is also submitted that the petitioners have very good grounds to agitate in the said W.P.(C) No.4048 of 2017 and unless the same is restored to its original file, the petitioners will be highly prejudiced. Hence, it is submitted that the W.P.(C) No.4048 of 2017 be restored to its original file.
Learned counsel appearing for the opposite parties has not raised any serious objection.
Considering the aforesaid submission of the learned counsel for the petitioners and the facts and circumstances of this case, W.P.(C) No.4048 of 2017 is directed to be restored to its original file at the same stage at which it was before its dismissal.
Registry is directed to list W.P.(C) No.4048 of 2017 before the concerned Bench after a week.
This Civil Miscellaneous Petition is disposed of accordingly.
