Shantaram S/O. Yashawant Nandodkar v. Laxman S/O. Ravalu Nandodkar
Case brief
What is this about?
The High Court dismissed an appeal under Section 100 of CPC as abated. The appeal was filed against an interim decree and the original decree. The court noted the first respondent (plaintiff in suit) was deceased and his legal representatives were not brought on record, causing the appeal to abate. Since the suit was decreed jointly, the entire appeal was dismissed.
What did the court decide?
Appeal dismissed as abated due to failure to bring deceased respondent's legal representatives on record.
