Appellant Has Right To Withdraw Appeal Without Any Strings Attached, High Court Must Grant Leave When Requested: Telangana High Court

The Telangana High Court ruled that an appellant has an absolute right to withdraw an appeal without conditions, provided no cross-objection is filed by the respondent. The court's discretion is limited to ensuring that the respondent has no acquired rights affected by the withdrawal. The case involved appellants withdrawing their appeal after settling with a bank, despite objections from other respondents who had no legal standing due to their lack of cross-objections.
