Shyamal Mallick vs Mamta Das on 17 March, 2026
The said provision also came up for
consideration before Kerala High Court in Lakshmi v. Padmanabhan
Nadar, 1967 Ker LT 490. It was held that under the law the minor must
be informed of the pendency of the suit and in absence of such a
notice the minor cannot be imputed with the knowledge of the
pendency of the suit. So, before any adverse order is to be made
against the minor who has attained majority, the court is liable to give
notice which in the present case is not necessary because appellant
No. 5 has now come forward to give her consent for continuing the
appeal on her behalf as well.
