Appeal No. 182 of 2004-E ------------------------------------------------- Dated this the 26th day of May, 2010 JUDGMENT Basant,J. This appeal filed as early as in 2004 remains in the defect list even now for the reason that steps have not been taken for issue of notice to the sole respondent in spite of the specific further directions issued on 17/5/10. The learned counsel submits that the letter sent to the appellant is returned unserved. The conclusion appears to be irresistible that the appellant is not interested in the prosecution of this appeal. 2. This appeal is, in these circumstances, dismissed for non-prosecution. Sd/- R.
