Quick Summary: In a court case between K. Gunadharan and G.L. Krishnamoorthy, the appeal was dismissed because K. Gunadharan didn't have anyone to speak for him. Let's break down what happened.

The Case Background

This case is about K. Gunadharan trying to change a decision made by a court in Erode District. The original decision was in favor of G.L. Krishnamoorthy, and K. Gunadharan wasn't happy with it.

No Show in Court

The case was supposed to be heard on September 16, 2025. However, no one came to speak for K. Gunadharan. Because of this, the court moved it to September 23, 2025, and warned that it might be dismissed if no one showed up again.

Final Decision by Judge A.D. Maria Clete

On September 23, 2025, the case was called again, but still, no one came to represent K. Gunadharan. So, Judge A.D. Maria Clete decided to dismiss the appeal.

"This appeal is dismissed for non-prosecution. Consequently, the connected miscellaneous petition is closed."

What Does This Mean?

The dismissal means that the original decision by the court in Erode District stays as it is. K. Gunadharan lost his chance to change the decision because he didn't attend the court hearings.

Summary of the Verdict

The court decided to dismiss K. Gunadharan's appeal because nobody showed up to speak for him on the scheduled dates. This means the earlier court's decision in favor of G.L. Krishnamoorthy remains unchanged.
