Written statement in rfa

If you are sure regarding proper service of respondents, you may file an affidavit to this effect.

after service of the responent if the respondents do not put up appearance they shall be declared as ex-parte and  your appeal shall proceed before the Court concerned.

Well advised by learned senior expert advocate Vashista Sir.

I endorse his views and suggest you to file AOS supported by acknowledgement card in case of private summons were taken on the orders of high court. 

Thank you so much Sh. T Kalaiselvan ji for endorsing my opinion and views.

There is no necessity of filing any reply or written statement in an Appeal.

Once the service has been completed, the case would be placed before the Judge 

Dear Shri Venu,

If other parties don't need to file reply or WS, then on what basis will they argue their case ?

Surely they have to take a position before the judge, and this must be in a written form.

Surely there must be a limit to how much time is given to them to file a reply ? 

It has now been almost five months since service and there is nothing on record except my appeal

Has the RFA been numbered? If yes, what is the case number? Whcih court?

Yes Sir, It has been numbered ... sadly I cannot reveal it without revealing the entire case. But please be assured I am telling the truth. It was numbered, admitted and summons were issued and served correctly. The Registrar then took it up and asked me to send summons once again for NDOH, by all means. I did so. By regulay method, by email as well as by Whatsapp. Parties cannot deny receiving it because they are on record having asked a question or two. 

As for the court, it is one of the two courts which deals with these matters. So, all that is in place. I just need to anticipate what will likely happen now.

Thanks

There is no  written statement to be filed in the appeal suit. Once the case is listed for hearing, if the summons were served or if you have filed the affidavit of service before the court confirming the services of summons, then the court after hearing the arguments of the appellant may pass orders in the absence of the respondent based on the merits in the appeal.

Your profile reveals that you are in the habit of posting imaginary queries. May be you are setting question papers for us.

Shri Venu,

You are entitled to your view. My profile may not reveal anything but that does not mean my question is not genuine. I have received reasonably satisfactory responses from many above, including from you, Sir. I cannot reveal my identity or my case details as it could lead to the respondents doing something against my interest. 

Others have responded in good faith - without wishing to know my identity and for that I am grateful. This is a voluntary forum and it is not necessary that a lwayer responding is always looking to land the case. 

But thank you for your responses anyway.
