1. This is an Application seeking restoration of the Contempt Petition, which came to be dismissed for non-supply of a copy of the Contempt Petition.
2. When the matter is called out, Mr. Shastri, learned counsel appearing for the Applicant, submits that the non-compliance was due to a bona fide mistake on the part of the Advocate, who was under the impression that no further compliances were required. However, when the Advocate for the Applicant checked the listing board dated 27th Suresh 1/2
31-IA-1614-2026 (C).doc April 2026, he discovered that the Petition was not listed. Upon scrutiny, he discovered the order dated 16th March 2026, which could not be complied with due to the aforesaid bona fide mistake.
3. Mr. Shastri, learned counsel appearing for the Applicant, submits that the Interim Application was filed in time and that this Court may condone the non-supply of a copy to the Registry and restore the Petition.
4. Having heard the learned counsel appearing for the Applicant, the Contempt Petition is accordingly restored.
5. Let a spare copy of the Contempt Petition be furnished to the Registry within a period of two weeks.
6. The Interim Application accordingly stands allowed and disposed of in the above terms. (NEERAJ P. DHOTE, J.) (ABHAY AHUJA, J.) Suresh 2/2
