Bombay High Court

HANMANTRAO DNYANBA PANHALEversusRAMCHANDRA HASHMATMAL UDHANI

Disposal
Dismissed

Holding

The petition is dismissed for default.

Summary

The petitioner, Hanmantrao Dnyanba Panhale, filed a writ petition before the Bombay High Court, Circuit Bench at Kolhapur, seeking relief against the respondent, Ramchandra Hashmatmal Udhani. The petition was presented without any counsel for the petitioner, as evidenced by the court's Farad Sheet showing constant absence of the petitioner's lawyer. The respondent was represented by Mr. Sharad T. Bhosale. The sole issue before the court was whether the petition could proceed despite the petitioner's lack of representation. The court held that the petition could not be entertained and dismissed it for default, citing procedural non‑compliance. Consequently, the writ petition was dismissed.

Issues considered

  • Whether the writ petition should be dismissed for default due to the petitioner's counsel being constantly absent?

Subjects

  • writ petition
  • default dismissal
  • civil appellate jurisdiction
  • court procedure
