which was dismissed. As against which, the present Second Appeal has been
filed.

So far no steps have been taken to restore the appeal by R3 and R6. In the
meantime, the second respondent had passed away on 13.06.2000.
3. Now, C.M.P(MD) No.5366 of 2000 has been filed to condone the
inordinate delay of 7075 days in filing the petition to set aside the abatement
caused due to the death of the second respondent. However in the Civil
Miscellaneous Petition, the appellants have also not taken steps to serve the
proposed respondents.

have not turned up for taking substitute service. Hence C.M.P(MD) Nos.
5366 to 5368 of 2021 are dismissed for defalut.
5. Accordingly, this Second Appeal is dismissed as abated. No costs.
