What are the consequences of not receiving a court notice sent by Registered Post with Acknowledgmen

25-Jul-2024 (In Civil Law)

What are the consequences if I do not respond to a notice sent by Registered Post with Acknowledgment Due (RP AD) but it remains undelivered? Additionally, if I am aware of the contents of the notice, can I reply directly by denying the contents, or is it mandatory for a lawyer to handle the response?

Answer #2

Dear Sir, If it is unserved due to Door Lock or Deposited but not taken by addressee amounts to sufficient service. If really not served for insufficient address then you need not reply until it served. If it is personal matter legal notice may be answered by yourself. If you feel you you could reply the contents which are too technical then you may get it replied by advocate. In either case taking advise is advisable because the contents of reply binds you in future. You may share and get further advise.

Answer #3

Respected .... If it is undelivered the reason for the same will be sent to the sender and that "may" also become reasons. Without receiving the notice if your reply the same that should show that you know the nature of cause of the notice and also if you reply to the sad notice, then it will clearly shows that you are "aware" of the facts. Compulsory it should be answered when you receive the notice . Without replying the notice and which should carry endorsement that " Undelivered" it may give way to new situation/effect to the said proceeding.

Answer #4

if you are not delivered the notice, the contents is deemed without your knowledge, but it all depends on the postal endorsement if it says that intimation delivered or not claimed or refused or if it is sent to the correct address, then it is deemed service as per law. if you came across the contents of such notice, you may directly counter to the same by denying such disputed contents or may seek the services of an advocate, in both ways you may reply, replying only through an advocate is not compulsory.
