G.Arumugham v. a.Radhakrishnan
Case brief
What is this about?
C.M.P.No.3789 of 2004 in S.A.No.483 of 2004; High Court of Judicature at Madras; Justice R. Sakthivel; order dated 18-03-2026; closure of long-pending (2004) stay petition; Section 151 CPC inherent jurisdiction; stay sought of proceedings in O.S.No.447 of 2000 (Additional District Munsif, Cuddalore) as reversed in A.S.No.27 of 2003 (Principal District Court, Cuddalore); second appeal pending disposal; legal representatives substituted by order dated 16-03-2026 in C.M.P.Nos.770, 771 and 772 of 2010; no merits adjudicated; no precedents cited; advocates S.Sabarish for S.Kingston Jerold.
What did the court decide?
The Court closed C.M.P.No.3789 of 2004 because, considering its age, it had remained pending since 2004 without any fruitful purpose; the prayer to stay further proceedings in O.S.No.447 of 2000 pending the Second Appeal thus fell through without adjudication on merits.
