The proper course is timely substitution and, where required, an application to set aside abatement. A claimed devolution or assignment of interest also cannot be recognised if the transfer was not promptly placed on record and the contract restricts assignment without consent. The successor entities were therefore not entitled to be impleaded. en-us Mon, 30 Apr 2012 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 29 Jun 2020 10:09:50 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=288779 Order XXII Rule 10 CPC applies only while a proceeding remains pending; once abatement has occurred or the matter has otherwise ceased to be pending, it cannot be used to bring successor entities on record or revive the proceeding.
