For Appellants : Ms.K.Bhuvaneshwari for M/s.A.R.Nixon For RR2 to 6 : Ms.Abirami for Mr.V.Raghavachari

JUDGMENT

A perusal of the records shows that the first respondent in the above second appeal died on 19.06.1999. The appellants have filed petitions in C.M.P.Nos.11196 to 11198 of 2004 to implead the legal heirs of the deceased first respondent. 2.Today when the matter is taken up for hearing, Ms.K.Bhuvaneswari (Enroll No.2619/2008), learned counsel for the appellants, sought time to serve notice to the unserved respondents in the above C.M.Ps. It is also represented by the learned counsel for the appellants that the second appellant died on 05.07.2021 and she has filed a petition to bring on record the legal heirs of the deceased second appellant. 3.The petitions in C.M.P.Nos.11196 to 11198 of 2004 are filed in the year 2004 and till date the proposed respondents are not served with notice and the appellants did not show any interest in pursuing the matter.

4.It is also seen from the records that some of the respondents, who were minors at the time of filing of the appeal would now have become majors and no petition has been filed by the appellants to declare them as majors.

5.In the circumstances, I do not find any reason to grant adjournment in this case. Hence, the civil miscellaneous petitions are dismissed and the Second Appeal stand dismissed as abated. No costs.
