Supreme Court of India 2019-07-02 dismissed

Sundar Gupta & Ors vs Sunil Vasudeva & Ors

Bench: 2 — Rastogi

In Brief

This brief order dismisses a contempt petition as infructuous—that is, as having become unnecessary and pointless. The petitioner had filed the contempt petition in connection with a civil appeal, but by the date of this order (2 July 2019), the underlying civil appeal had been decided. Since the Court's order in the principal appeal had resolved the core issues, the contempt petition no longer served any practical purpose and was therefore dismissed. Any pending applications in the matter were also disposed of accordingly.
