Normally for civil case i.e. property litigation case, how many years will take. how many times the court can postpone the case on the pretext of plaintiff evidence. is there any time limit/no of times giving an opportunity to the plaintiff. Under the circumstances, what is the remedy available to defendant. Defendant lawyer is also simply dragging the case without filing any petition for the absence of plaintiff evidence i.e not requesting for closure of plaintiff evidence or praying for exparte decree.

we cannot guide court to function differently. We cannot foresee when the matter will be concluded. However, it is established Repeated deliberate absence and dragging the case by Defendant or for filing ws,evidence shall be viewed by the court seriously and ex-parte decision is given taken subject to giving full oppor.tunity to the defendent
