Respondent-In-Person


UPON hearing counsel the Court made the following


O R D E R


S.L.P.(C) Nos. 13075 of 2006 and 9309 of 2005


Despite the order passed by this Court on 13.2.2012, the petitioners have taken no steps to serve  the unserved respondent and to serve chamber summons on the proposed legal representatives of the deceased sole respondent in the aforesaid matters respectively.
 

Office Report dated 29.3.2012 has been perused by us, which clearly reflects that the petitioners have taken

no steps in this regard. The matters were again listed on 30.3.2012 and then were posted for today. During

this period also, the petitioners did not care to complete the service, as mentioned in our earlier order.
This shows the callous and negligent attitude of the petitioners in prosecuting their matters.


In the light of this, the aforesaid two special leave petitions are hereby dismissed. The applications for condonation of delay in filing substitution application and substitution of legal representatives of the deceased respondent are also dismissed in S.L.P.(C) No. 9309 of 2005.


Other Special Leave Petitions  Delay in filing the Special Leave Petitions is condoned.


After having heard Mr. P.P. Malhotra, learned Additional Solicitor General at length and after perusal of the impugned order, in the facts and circumstances of the cases, we are not inclined to interfere against the
impugned orders passed by the High Court. The Special Leave Petitions are hereby dismissed.
