Allahabad High Court

SMT. PRERNA ARORA AND ANOTHERversusSTATE OF U.P. AND ANOTHER

Decided

Holding

The application under Section 482 is dismissed for want of prosecution.

Summary

The petitioners, Smt. Prerna Arora and another, filed an application under Section 482 of the Code of Criminal Procedure before the Allahabad High Court. The matter was listed, but the petitioners failed to appear on the scheduled dates, including the previous hearing on 16‑April‑2026 and the current date. The State's Additional Government Advocate was present, but no counsel represented the petitioners. The Court observed the lack of prosecution and consequently dismissed the application. Consequently, any interim order previously granted was vacated and the order was directed to be sent to the trial court.
