Opposite party didn't appear in the court


03-Aug-2024 (In Recovery Law)
The opposite party didn't appear in the court even when I sent them the legal notice. Judge said that they will wait till 2 pm but still the opposite party didn't appear. Judge has given a next date, what am I supposed to do? Should I ask opposite party to appear in the court on the next date? Or anything else I need to do?

If your matter is of criminal nature then you can always issue warrants against the opposite party and if it's of civil nature then in that case the judge can ex-parte the opposite party and even strike off his/her to cross examination. You should submit proper evidence that despite service he/she is not coming to the court and avoiding the proceedings.

hi good morning , handling case in person is good but you need to talk advice of good advocate to win the case. it's not possible to teach all the legal points on sms but you need to send again the summon to the opposite party.

You need to hire expert advocate if your current advocate is unanswerable to such questions! Moreover it’s better to keep quite and let court pass ex parte decree in your favour
It’s will be more helpful
