IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA MJC No.3256 of 2008 SACHIDANAND PRASAD Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ANR ----------- 5 21-07-2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. The prayer in this restoration application is to restore M.J.C. No. 2621 of 2006 in which the relevant facts were noted on 13-8-2008 whereupon the court expressed its satisfaction that no case of contempt is made out. However, since counsel for the petitioner had not appeared on that date, the application was dismissed for non-prosecution. In view of explanation furnished today for non-appearance of the counsel, the M.J.C. No. 2621 of 2006 is restored but in view of consensus between the parties that the claim of the petitioner for promotion has been kept pending awaiting final result of C.W.J.C.No. 12348 of 1996, on merits the contempt petition has to be dismissed. In that view of the matter this restoration application is allowed but the M.J.C. bearing 2621 of 2006 will stand dismissed. Naresh ( Shiva Kirti Singh, J.)
