JUDGMENT
Learned counsel for the appellant called out, absent.
For the last four adjournments office objections were not
complied. The matter is pending since 2019 and even on
22.07.2021, a peremptory order came to be passed and in
spite of peremptory order, neither the appellant nor the
counsel took any interest in attending office objections.
Even, there was no request on behalf of the appellant and
all along the counsel for the appellant remained absent.
Hence, the appeal stands dismissed.
In view of dismissal of the appeal, all pending I.A's
do not survive for consideration and the same are
dismissed.
