Proforma party

A writ was filed before  High court by an ex-employee of a Company. He impleaded his first & second employer as parties & impleaded his last employer as proforma party. The copy of the writ petion was sent to the last employer by the advocate of the petitioner through post. When the petition was taken up by the court for admission, the Court held that " issue notice to the contesting respondence i. e. respondent No. 1 & 2". In this situation what will be for the last employer? whether it will be presumed that no case is filed aginst him or he will be a party to that case though no notice is issued by the court?

This doesn't mean that perform has been ousted from the writ rather it is the requirement to listen the contesting parties before admission so notice has been directed to be sent to them. Once case is admitted, the performa respondent shall also be summonned.
