Case Note & Summary
The case involved an appeal filed by Radha Krishna Singh and others against the State of Bihar. The Patna High Court, presided over by Justice Mungeshwar Sahoo, noted that on 29th February 2012, the parties were instructed to submit photocopies of documents necessary for reconstructing the records. However, when the case was called, neither party appeared nor submitted the required documents. Consequently, the court decided to close the matter for the time being due to this non-compliance.
