https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=168187 A prayer to bring legal representatives on record may be construed liberally as including a request to set aside abatement, particularly in a joint suit where the relief can enure to the entire proceeding. Abatement is governed strictly, but setting it aside is approached liberally where sufficient cause is shown, and a technical absence of an express prayer need not defeat revival of the suit. An order permitting substitution and setting aside abatement is procedural, does not determine substantive rights on the merits, and is not a judgment for Letters Patent appeal purposes; the remedy lies against refusal, not grant, of such relief. en-us Tue, 16 Sep 2003 00:00:00 +0530 Tue, 16 Dec 2025 15:42:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=168187 A prayer to bring legal representatives on record may be construed liberally as including a request to set aside abatement, particularly in a joint suit where the relief can enure to the entire proceeding.
