Allahabad High Court

KUSH PRATAP AND ANOTHERversusSRI SATENDRA KUMAR SINGH, BSA AND ANOTHER

Decided

Holding

Since the order of the writ court has been complied with, the contempt application is dismissed.

Summary

The applicants, Kush Pratap and another, filed a civil contempt application (No. 2151 of 2021) before the Allahabad High Court alleging non‑compliance with an order of the writ court. The counsel for the applicants, Sr. Advocate Siddharth Khare, appeared before the bench and was assisted by Advocate Kumar Shresth. The court was informed that the order of the writ court had been fully complied with by the opposite parties. On the basis of this compliance, the court examined whether any contempt had occurred. Finding that the statutory condition for contempt was absent, the court held that the contempt application could not stand. Consequently, the contempt notice was discharged and the application dismissed. The judgment was delivered by Justice Rohit Ranjan Agarwal on 12 May 2026.
