Rule 22 of the Customs, Excise and Service Tax Appellate Tribunal (Procedure) Rules, 1982 provides that an appeal abates on the death of the appellant unless a successor-in-interest or legal representative applies for continuance within the prescribed framework. In the absence of such an application, proceedings cannot continue against the deceased person.
