● During the pendency of O.S.93/1989, both Ramasamy (first plaintiff) and Appu alias Palanisamy (the second defendant) died. Consequent to Palanisamy’s death, his widow and children were brought on record as defendants 4 to 6. Of them, the present plaintiff was arrayed as the 6th defendant. He was a minor at that relevant time, and his mother, the 4th defendant was appointed as his guardian. ● The plaintiff’s grandfather (Kandasamy, the first defendant in O.S.93/1989) alone filed the written statement. None of the other defendants contested the suit. In other words, the guardian of the 6th defendant-minor did not file any written statement on his behalf and contested the suit. Ultimately, on 30-06-1993, an exparte decree came to be passed in O.S.93/1989. Copy of this decree is Ext.A-3. http://www.judis.nic.in
