Criminal Writ Petition No. 232 of 2008 filed by him came to be dismissed for non prosecution on 31/3/2008. Petitioner had appeared as party-in-person even in the writ petition and this court on 15/2/2008 noted that he was not able to assist the court and, therefore, Shri S.P. Pandey, the learned Advocate, was requested to argue the matter on behalf of the petitioner. On 10/3/2008 Mr. Pandey sought leave of the court to discharge him as the petitioner wanted to engage another counsel or argue on his own. Mr. Pandey was, :2: therefore, allowed to withdraw and on the next date i.e. on 31/3/2008 the petitioner remained absent. In fact, petition was to appear on 17/3/2008 but for some reason or the other it was listed on 31/3/2008 which date perhaps was not known to the petitioner party-in-person. 2. Hence, we allow this application in terms of prayer clause (a). 3. We direct the Registry to issue notice to the petitioner, party-in-person, informing him that Criminal Writ Petition No. 232 of 2008 will be listed for admission on 21/7/2008 and that he should cause his appearance either in person or through an Advocate. 4. List Criminal Writ Petition No.232 of 2008 for admission on 21/7/2008. (J.H. Bhatia, J.) (J.H. Bhatia, J.) (J.H. Bhatia, J.) (B.H. Marlapalle,J.) (B.H. Marlapalle,J.) (B.H. Marlapalle,J.)
