#CPC Order 22

The Himachal High Court ruled that an appeal is extinguished if a deceased co-owner’s legal representative is not brought on record, preventing contradictory decrees. Parties must ensure representation of all owners before pursuing an appeal.

Orissa High Court rules that substitution of legal heirs under Order 22 CPC does not reset the limitation period for a suit. The original filing date remains valid if the suit was instituted within time, ensuring continuity of proceedings without granting a fresh limitation window.
