IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA S.A. No.581 of 1991 GANESH RAM Versus SRI CHATURBHUJ MISTRY & ORS. ----------- 06/ 04.05.2009 This second appeal was filed 18 years back with a defective certified copy of the decree under appeal and hence vide order dated 10.07.1996 this court directed learned counsel for the appellant to take certified copy of the decree from the office and must re-file the same in this court within four weeks after obtaining the seal of certified to be true copy on it with the signature of the competent authority. Thereafter learned counsel for the appellant has filed a slip dated 19.11.1996 in this court stating that office of this court handed over a letter along with certified copy of the decree under appeal for getting the said defects removed from the court below but in spite of information sent to the appellant neither the appellant nor his pairvikar has approached him to comply the order of this court and hence the said certified copy of the decree under appeal was returned, as he had no instruction from the appellant. It transpires that although 13 years have lapsed thereafter but the said order has not been complied, nor learned counsel for the appellant has appeared to make his submission. Accordingly, this second appeal is dismissed for non-prosecution. harish/ ( S.N.Hussain, J)
