Thanks for your query. From the facts mentioned above it is evident that the person is dead and there is an order to that effect by a Court of competent jurisdiction. However if the resident address is of a village then Grampanchayat is the Competent Authority to issue death certificate but if the orders of the Competent Court are not complied with or there is any ambiguity with regards to the order by anyone then that person can movean application in the Court which has issued the order directing the Competent Authority to comply with the order or review the order appropriately for necessary compliance
