1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JODHPUR -------------------------------------------------------- WRIT RESTORATION No. 46 of 2007 S.C. BOHRA V/S ALLAHABAD BANK & ORS. Mr. VIPIN for Mr. RAVINDRA PALIWAL, for the appellant / petitioner Date of Order : 9.7.2007 HON'BLE SHRI N P GUPTA,J. ORDER ----- Heard learned counsel for the petitioner. The only ground given for restoration is that on 17.4.2006 the writ petition was listed in court for hearing, and that when the writ petition was taken up for hearing the counsel was arguing the matter in any other court, therefore, he could appear. A look at the order produced by the petitioner dismissing the writ petition shows that it was dismissed on 18.4.2006, and not on 17.4.2006 as contended. Then, the plea taken in the application in para-2 is very vague as it is pleaded “the counsel for the petitioner was arguing the matter in any other court”. Apart from the fact that under the provisions of 17 C.P.C. this hardly constitutes any ground for absence, in any case nothing prevented the 2 counsel to have sent somebody to inform about any inability of the counsel. It may be observed that the writ petition is of the year 1992, and was on the board for hearing right from 4.4.2006, being the continuing list of hearing cases, and on 18.4.2006 after deciding other cases, when this case was called, nobody appeared till closure of the day, and the Court was left with no option but to dismiss the writ petition. In my view, in the above, circumstances, no good cause has been made out to restore the petition. The restoration application is, therefore, dismissed. ( N P GUPTA ),J. /Sushil/
