Holding

The civil application was dismissed for want of prosecution.

Summary

The appellant, Kishore Manoharlal Raheja, filed a first appeal (No. 481 of 2020) against Lad D. Motwani, accompanied by a civil application (No. 1257 of 2017). The court examined whether the civil application should proceed. Finding that the application had not been prosecuted, the court dismissed it for want of prosecution. Consequently, the civil application did not survive, and the interim application was abated. The appeal was therefore dismissed.
