M. P. No.
2157 of 2020 to its original file. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that Cr. M. P. No. 2157 of 2020 was dismissed for non-compliance of peremptory order of this Court to remove the defects as pointed out by the stamp reporter within two weeks. It is next submitted that due to serious health condition of the conducting counsel, the said peremptory order could not be complied with within the stipulated time and the same resulted in dismissal of Cr. M. P. No. 2157 of 2020. It is further submitted that the petitioners have very good grounds to agitate in this Cr. M. P. No. 2157 of 2020 and unless Cr. M. P. No. 2157 of 2020 is restored to its original file, the petitioners will be highly prejudiced. Hence, it is submitted that the Cr. M. P. No. 2157 of 2020 be restored to its original file. Learned counsel for the opposite party no. 2 submits that the petitioners are deliberately delaying the matter and harassing the opposite party no. 2 by lingering the same.
Hence, the opposite party no. 2 be adequately compensated with costs. Considering the aforesaid submission of the learned counsel for the petitioners, Cr. M. P. No. 2157 of 2020 be restored to its original file to the stage at which, it was before its dismissal subject to payment of costs of Rs. 5,000/- by the petitioners to the opposite party no. 2 through the learned counsel appearing in the record within two weeks, failing which, this conditional order shall not be given effect to and this criminal miscellaneous petition shall stand dismissed without further reference to the Bench. In case, the petitioners file the proof of payment of costs of Rs. 5,000/- by the petitioners to the opposite party no. 2 through the learned counsel appearing in the record within two weeks, list Cr. M. P. No. 2157 of 2020 under the appropriate heading after a week before the appropriate Bench. (Anil Kumar Choudhary, J. ) Sonu-Gunjan/
