3.You can oppose the prayer of addition of party.

4. Since you have not disclosed much about the contents of the plaint and your written statement I cannot comment on the merit of the suit.

Please clarify if the following acts of the Petitioner can be termed under contempt of court:

- Frivolous suit as Petitioner has got no valid proof for the mentioned causes of action to have been done on a specified date that he says led to his filing of the civil suit

- Petitioner not appearing in court since long being instructed to & his Lawyer is making excuses in every hearing

- Petitioner causing unnecessary delay by dragging case for no justifiable reasons

- Petitioner has suppressed important information from the court relating to the suit

- Petitioner, very well knowing about the time bar limitation of the causes of action, is trying to bypass the stage to prove/disprove it by convincing the court for Commissioner’s visit.

The above may not come under contempt of court laws neither the person can be treated as contemn-or.

If the Petitioner is now trying to get out of this suit by enrolling a new party to this suit in place of the Petitioner, without executing any Registered Sale Deed to evade stamp duty and registration fees, but by executing just a General POA, is there any provision for the Defendant to bring such deceitful actions of the Petitioner in court?

The petitioner can appoint a General power of attorney agent to attend, appear and prosecute the case through the power agent. .

1. The frivolity of the suit has to be proved at the trial, but it is not a ground to prosecute the plaintiff for contempt of court.

2. If the suit is barred by limitation then the defendant may apply under order 7 rule 11 to the court to dismiss the suit.

3. None of the circumstances envisaged by you amount to contempt of court even remotely.
