RAOSAHEB ALIAS RAJENDRA DEVISINGH SHEKHWATversusChandrakant Ramdas Joshi

Disposal
DISPOSED OFF

Holding

The Court dispensed with the requirement of personal presence of the respondents.

Summary

The Court had earlier ordered respondents No.1 to 3 to be personally present before it. Respondents' counsel informed the Court that a close relative had died on 28‑08‑2026, making personal presence impossible, and that a reply had already been filed. Considering this emergency, the Court dispensed with the requirement of personal presence unless otherwise directed. Accordingly, the civil applications were disposed of. The Court listed the petitions for further consideration on 06‑10‑2026.

Issues considered

  • Whether the requirement of personal presence of respondents can be waived due to the death of a close relative

Subjects

  • personal presence
  • court procedure
  • adjournment
  • civil applications
  • emergency

                      P.C.:

                      1.       By order dated 29.08.2026, respondent nos.1 to 3 were
                      directed to remain personally present before the Court.

                      2.       Learned advocate for respondent nos.1 to 3 states that he
                      could not remain present before the Court during the course of hearing
                      on 29.08.2026 due to demise of a near relative on 28.08.2026. Learned
                      advocate states that the reply is already filed by respondent nos.1 to 3.

                      3.       In view of the above, presence of respondent nos.1 to 3 is
                      dispensed with unless otherwise directed.
