3 20.6.2011 Heard the parties.

The prayer in this restoration application is to

restore LPA No.821 of 2000 which was dismissed in

default in appearance of the counsel on 26.6.2008.

It has been submitted on behalf of the petitioner

that the senior counsel engaged on behalf of the

appellant had fallen ill and hence, a prayer for pass over

was made and considering that the order for pass over

was for the whole day, nobody appeared when the case

was called out for the second time.

Considering all the facts and circumstances, the
-2-

prayer for restoration is allowed and LPA No.821 of

2000 is restored to its original file.

The restoration application is thus allowed.
