The reason given is that the concerned - = : 2 : = - Officer of the department was on leave and, therefore, nobody attended the matters. We are not impressed by this reason. However, with a view not to cause prejudice to the revenue on merits, we set aside the order passed by the Registrar (Judicial) on 9th June, 2005 dismissing the appeals for non prosecution. Appeals will be restored to file on payment of costs of Rs.1,500/- in each matter to the respondent. 2. Applications are allowed. Appeals be listed for admission on 14th December, 2006.
