Allahabad High Court

RAM KUMARversusSRI NAVEEN KHANDELWAL, PRABHAGIYA VANADHIKARI

Decided

Holding

The contempt application was dismissed as infructuous because the writ order had been complied with.

Summary

Ram Kumar filed a civil contempt application (No. 1194 of 2024) before the Allahabad High Court against Sri Naveen Khandelwal and Prabhagiya Vanadhikari, alleging non‑compliance with a writ Court order. The applicant was represented by counsel Ramendra Kumar Shukla, who informed the Court that the writ order had been fully complied with. The Court examined this statement and concluded that there was no longer any basis for contempt. Consequently, the Court held that the contempt application was rendered infructuous. The application and the accompanying contempt notice were therefore dismissed and discharged.
