JAWAHAR LAL vs PUSHPINDER KUMAR — RSA/885/2019

The High Court of Punjab and Haryana dismissed Jawahar Lal's second appeal against concurrent lower court judgments that had dismissed his suit for declaration and permanent injunction against Pushpinder Kumar. The court found the appellant exhibited utterly casual and negligent conduct throughout the decade-old 2015 matter, with multiple non-appearances and failure to comply with court orders, including non-deposit of required costs despite restoration. Justice Nidhi Gupta held that litigants seeking discretionary relief must approach courts with diligence and bona fides, and cannot repeatedly seek indulgence while disregarding judicial orders.
