Respondent Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajesh Bindal Present: Mr. Deepak Verma, Advocate for Mr. Vikas Bahl, Advocate, for the appellant. Mr. Malkiat Singh, Advocate, for the respondent. Rajesh Bindal J. Considering this to be first appeal in matrimonial matters, on 11.5.2009, notice of motion was issued in the absence of counsel for the appellant. On appearance of counsel for the respondent, the parties were directed to appear in person on 28.10.2009. Ever since then, the appeal is being adjourned on request. Today again a request has been made by the counsel for the appellant stating that the appellant is not well and he cannot appear in person in court and medical certificate is annexed along with the adjournment slip. However, there is no medical certificate along with the adjournment slip. On enquiry it was informed that the appellant is living abroad since 2004. Even the divorce petition was filed thereafter. Seeing the conduct of the appellant, it is evident that he is delaying the proceedings. Dismissed for non-prosecution. 18.1.2010 ( Rajesh Bindal) vs. Judge
