Legal Representatives of Deceased in Immovable Property Cases - Legal representatives can be brought on record under Order XXII Rule 4(2) CPC, especially when the property is not purely personal and can devolve to heirs. However, the absence of evidence of interference or possession by the legal representatives may justify their dismissal from the record. The court may also require proper notice and compliance with procedural rules for substitution. KOMARA SRINIVASULU vs AVS LAKSHMI - Andhra Pradesh, SMT. VASUGI vs SRI R UMAPATHI - Karnataka
Order XXII Rule 2 Application - Generally, Order XXII Rule 2 pertains to the abatement of suits upon the death of a party if legal representatives are not substituted timely. The rule emphasizes that unless legal representatives are brought on record, the suit may abate, but exceptions exist if the property is not purely personal or if the legal representatives are properly substituted.

Substitution and Abatement of Suit - Courts have held that failure to bring legal representatives on record can lead to abatement, but this depends on the nature of the property and procedural compliance. In cases involving immovable property, substitution is necessary to prevent abatement, and subsequent purchasers or legal heirs must be properly impleaded.

Procedure and Notice - Proper notice to legal representatives under Order XXII Rule 4-A is not always mandatory if the court deems the substitution appropriate and procedural requirements are met. The courts emphasize the importance of following due process for legal substitution to avoid abatement or dismissal. DWARKOO VS UNION OF INDIA - Himachal Pradesh, SMT. VASUGI vs SRI R UMAPATHI - Karnataka
Conclusion - Under Order XXII Rule 2, the substitution of legal representatives of a deceased party is essential in cases involving immovable property to prevent abatement of the suit. While legal representatives can be brought on record, their proper identification, notice, and evidence of interference are crucial. If these procedural requirements are not met, the suit may abate or be dismissed. The courts recognize that immovable property can devolve to legal heirs, and proper legal substitution under Order XXII is necessary to continue proceedings.
