Mittal Present : Mr. Rajive Sharma, Advocate, for the appellants L.N. Mittal, J. (Oral) On the preceding date i.e. 19.1.2010, the following order was passed:- “No steps have been taken for service of legal representatives of respondent no. 1. Correct addresses have also not been furnished. The case is hanging fire for 4 years for service of respondents. Initially process fee was not filed for many dates of hearing and the case was dismissed for non- prosecution. After restoration, the respondents have not been served. It was observed in order dated 24.03.2008 that correct addresses of respondent No. 1 (ii), (iii), (v) and (vi) have to be furnished, but since then correct addresses have not been furnished for almost two years. Learned counsel for the appellants prays for one last and final opportunity. Although no justification for the same is made out, yet in the interest of justice, one last and final opportunity is granted to serve the legal representatives of Regular Second Appeal No. 2569 of 2005 -2- respondent No. 1, subject to deposit of Rs 1000/- as costs with the Registry of this Court. Adjourned to 08.04.2010. Necessary steps for service of legal representatives of respondent No. 1 be taken in the meanwhile.” In spite thereof necessary steps have not been taken for service of legal representatives of respondent no. 1. Learned counsel for the appellant states that he contacted the appellants but got no response from them. It is thus apparent that the appellants are no longer interested in prosecuting the instant appeal. Dismissed for non-prosecution. As prayed for, cost amount of Rs 1000/- imposed on the appellants on the preceding date of hearing may be deposited with the Registry of this Court within three weeks from today. ( L.N. Mittal ) April 08, 2010 Judge 'tiwana'
