                          JUDGMENT

Though it was reported that respondent No.1 had expired and time was granted on 21.10.2021 to take steps to bring the legal representatives of deceased respondent No.1 on record, steps are not taken till date. Hence, the appeal as against respondent No.1 stands abated. Since the suit is filed for the relief of specific performance of contract, the abatement of appeal as against respondent No.1 would result in abatement of appeal in its entirety in so far as -3- RFA No. 1240 of 2007 respondent No.2 is concerned. Hence, the appeal is disposed of as having abated.
