2.

Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner/appellant. 3.

The private notice sent to the first respondent has been served on 14.11.2023. The Court notice sent to the second respondent has been returned as "unclaimed" and the endorsement would show that intimation has been delivered on two occasions. Therefore, there is a deemed service on the second respondent as well. 4.

The learned counsel for the petitioner/appellant would submit that the petitioner had not preferred any appeal on account of the fact that his elder brother has undertaken to file an appeal on his behalf as well and it is only when he received the notice in S.A.No.101 of 2018, he came to know that his brother has not filed the appeal on his behalf. Therefore, there was a delay in filing the present appeal. https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis
