                               BEFORE
                 HONOURABLE MRS. JUSTICE MARLI VANKUNG

                                    ORDER

Date : 07.02.2025

Heard Mr. A. Ganguly, learned counsel for the appellants who has filed the instant regular Second appeal against the Judgment and Order dated 22.02.2024 passed by the learned Civil Judge (Sr. Div), Sonitpur, Tezpur in Misc(J) Case No.11/2021 arising out of T.A. Case No.02/2021, by which the petition No.387/2021 was filed by the appellants under Section 5 of the Limitation Act for condoning the delay in preferring the appeal under Order 41 Rules 1 and 2 read with Rule 3A of the CPC, which was dismissed and confirmed the Judgment and Decree dated 16.03.2019 passed by the Munsiff No.1, Tezpur in T.S. No.33/2014.

On hearing the submissions made by learned counsel for the appellants, the following Substantial questions of law are framed:

A. Whether the finding of the Ld. First Appellate Court that the Appellants were negligent and delayed in filing the Title Appeal No.02/2021 under Order 41 Rule 1 CPC is perverse and erroneous?

B. Whether the impugned Judgment and Decree dated 22.02.2024 is liable to be set aside as being null and void, on account of the death of the original Appellant No.1, Hasen Ali on 23.01.2023, during the pendency of the Appeal?

C. Whether the Appellants 1 to 9 can be non suited on account of the failure of their engaged counsel to perform his duty under Order 22 Rule Page No.# 7/7

10A CPC ?

The Appeal is admitted.

Notice be issued to the respondents through registered post with A/D as well as through usual mode.

List this matter after 3(three) weeks.

In the meanwhile, call for the LCR.
