DATE: 10TH JUNE, 2011 P.C.:- It is noticed from the record that the petitioner was directed to pay costs which he did not pay within specified time. Eventually, when the matters were listed on April 21, 2005, the Court ordered that 2 220905 the Registry shall not place these matters, unless costs as imposed by the Court are paid by the petitioner. The matters are pending since 2005. The petitioner has not chosen to comply with the order of costs so far. For that reason, the matters have been listed today for further appropriate order. None appears for the petitioner. 2. In our opinion, no further indulgence needs to be shown. The petitions are dismissed for non-prosecution. R.Y. GANOO, J. A.M. KHANWILKAR, J.
