Kuppan v. Rukumani Ammal

C.M.P.No.17582 of 2023 in C.M.S.A.No.53 of 2003 P.VELMURUGAN, J., The above appeal is pending from the year 2003 for service of notice. This is the pathetic situation of this Chartered High Court. If we are not able to find out the reasons to allow the appeal, the cases cannot be prolonged indefinitely because of the attitude of the Registry and the counsel.

2. Though respondents 2 to 5, 7, 8, 10 and 11 have been served and their names are being printed in the cause list, they have not entered appearance either through counsel or in person.

3. The learned counsel for the appellant is permitted to take substituted service on the un-served respondents i.e. sixth and ninth respondents' last known address by effecting paper publication in one issue of 'Dhina Malar', indicating the date of hearing as 24.08.2023. Proof of such paper publication shall be filed before this Court.

4. This petition is ordered, accordingly.

List the matter on 24.08.2023.
