Leave granted.\n<\/p>\n<p>2. The principal contention on behalf of the appellant is that no service of the writ petition was effected upon him after the High Court made an order on 10th November, 1997 thus : &#8220;Notice regarding rule&#8221;. No doubt, on 13th January, 1998, the Court has recorded, &#8220;(N)o one has appeared for R-5 despite service of notice.&#8221; But that is not borne out by the record. Most telling is a communication dated 22nd January, 1999 on behalf of the Registrar (Judicial) of the High Court. It refers to the writ petition and states &#8220;that there is no acknowledgment to show that notice of W.P. had been served on the 5th respondent or on his counsel in W.P. 24856\/97. However, Cause List dt. 25-3-98 shows the name of the Advocate for the Caveator (Res.-5) which is sufficient Notice to R-5.&#8221; This, in our view, is not correct. Notice must be served on the concerned respondent even though he might have appeared on caveat unless counsel on his be-half has waived service. There is nothing to show that the appellant had waived service at the relevant time.\n<\/p>\n<p>3. We think, in the circumstances, that the orders of the High Court must be set aside and the writ petition restored to its file for being heard afresh after giving the appellant the opportunity of filing a counter, if he so chooses.\n<\/p>\n<p>4. Having regard to the lapse of time, this shall be done expeditiously.\n<\/p>\n<p>5. Order on the appeals accordingly.\n<\/p>\n<p>6. No order as to costs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Supreme Court of India Venkatesh vs State Of Karnataka And Ors. on 28 April, 2000 Equivalent citations: AIR 2000 SC 3561, 2001 (3) ALT 16 SC, JT 2000 (7) SC 540 Bench: S Bharucha, S V Patil JUDGMENT 1.
