Allahabad High Court

SMT. PREM LATAversusBABU SONKAR AND 4 OTHERS

Decided

Holding

The revision is dismissed for want of prosecution.

Summary

Smt. Prem Lata filed a revision application (S.C.C. Revision No. 184 of 2022) before the Allahabad High Court challenging a decision of the lower court against Babu Sonkar and four others. The revisionist's counsel, Saurabh Kumar Pandey, appeared, but the opposite party's counsel, Shashi Kant Srivastava and Vikas Mathur, were present. No further appearance or prosecution was made by the revisionist. The Court observed that the revisionist failed to press the revision and therefore dismissed the application for want of prosecution. Consequently, any interim order that may have been in force was vacated.
