In legal terms, an "uncontested decree"or "uncontested disposal"means a case has been resolved without any opposition or dispute from the other party often because the opponent didn't appear in court or didn't challenge the claims. This typically results in the court ruling in favor of the applicant. An "uncontested ex parte decree"is a judgment granted to the plaintiff when the defendant, despite being properly served with a court summons, fails to appear, and the court finds the plaintiff's case valid without any opposition. Meanwhile, "decreed without cost"means the court has ruled in favor of one party but has decided the losing party will not have to pay the winner's legal expenses granting the requested relief without awarding costs.

Normally the exparte decree will be ready with in three months or earlier and the said judgement is typed by typist not steno. It is noted that which judge pronounced the judgement that the same judge should sign the judgement even though judge is transferred to other court and normally it takes sometime.

I am not able to understand what has happened. You say that the case is decreed with costs, then you should get the Order/Judgment copy. Judge on leave, court leave etc will not be a delay. In the case is in Chennai, then I can help you to get the Judgment copy early. Kindly contact me for any further guidance.

Exparte decree is given when either of the party hadn't appeared before the court on the hearing day, such orders generally favour the party present. For setting aside the exparte decree you need to file before 30days from the date of knowledge/ date of decree. Kindly act asap, question/ask your lawyer in this regard, get an noc from him and better approach some other lawyer!
