1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO.2047 OF 1997 Hardhaan Manmohan Deshmukh ..Petitioner. Vs. M/s. Hotel Airport Plaza and another ..Respondents. .... Mr. Avinash Fatangare with Mr. Kiran S. Bapat for the Petitioner. Mr. Neel Helekar with Ms. Sanika Deshpande i/b M/s. Haresh Mehta & Co. for the Respondents. .... CORAM: DR. D.Y. CHANDRACHUD, J. 30th June, 2008. P.C. : Counsel appearing for the Petitioner has stated before the Court that despite three telegrams, the last of which was remitted on 31st May, 2008, the Petitioner has not been forthcoming to intimate as to whether he is interested in pursuing these proceedings. The issue before the Court is as to whether the resignation allegedly tendered by the Petitioner was a voluntary resignation or otherwise. The Court below has come to the conclusion that the resignation was not under duress. Be that as it may, in view of the statement made by Counsel appearing for the 2 Petitioner it would appear that the Petitioner has lost interest in these proceedings. The Petition is dismissed for want of prosecution. However, liberty is granted to the Petitioner if he is still interested in the proceedings to apply for revival within a reasonable period. Counsel appearing for the Petitioner has fairly stated before the Court that an effort will be made to communicate the order of the Court to the last known address of the Petitioner. *****
