Holding
A transfer application is dismissed for want of prosecution if the applicant does not appear to press the application.
Summary
Alka @ Nishtha Jaiswal filed a transfer application (Civil) No. 745 of 2023 before the Allahabad High Court seeking to transfer the suit. The applicant's counsel, Manoj Kumar Dwivedi and Rakesh Kumar Tripathi, did not appear to press the application. The opposite party, Sagar Jaiswal, was represented by Brahmsukh Pal, Mani Shanker Pandey and Rama Nand Shukla. The court examined whether a transfer application can proceed in the absence of any prosecution by the applicant. Applying the procedural rule that an unprosecuted application must be dismissed, the judge dismissed the transfer application for want of prosecution. Consequently, any interim order previously granted was vacated.
