Disposal: D.F.D. (PRE-EMPTORY)
Bench: ALOK KUMAR SINHA

Holding

The court held that non‑compliance with the earlier order dated 06‑01‑2026 justified dismissal of the petition.

Summary

Shiv Prasad filed a petition in the High Court of Judicature at Patna against ten respondents, including Shanti Devi and several members of the Sao and Thakuri families. The petition sought relief, but the court noted that a prior order dated 06‑01‑2026 had not been complied with by the parties. The learned counsel for the petitioner and the State were present during the hearing on 13‑02‑2026. The judge observed that the failure to obey the earlier order warranted dismissal of the present proceedings. Consequently, the case was dismissed by the court.
