Allahabad High Court

Smt. PRATIBHA JAISWALversusSANTOSH JAISWAL

Decided

Holding

The transfer application is dismissed for want of prosecution, and the earlier interim order is vacated.

Summary

The applicant, Smt. Pratibha Jaiswal, filed a transfer application (Civil) No. 1020 of 2023 before the Allahabad High Court seeking to transfer the suit against Santosh Jaiswal. No counsel appeared on behalf of the applicant to pursue the application. Consequently, the Court dismissed the transfer application for want of prosecution. The Court also vacated any interim order that had been previously granted. The dismissal was recorded by Justice Yogendra Kumar Srivastava on May 5, 2026.

Issues considered

  • What is the appropriate course of action when a transfer application is filed but the applicant fails to appear or prosecute the application?
  • Should the interim order previously granted in the suit remain in force despite the dismissal of the transfer application?

Subjects

  • transfer of suit
  • civil procedure
  • want of prosecution
  • interim order vacated
