Analysis and Conclusion:
Failure of adjudication often results from procedural defaults such as not impleading necessary parties, not appearing, or procedural lapses by courts or authorities. While default can justify dismissal or termination of proceedings, courts generally favor fairness and justice, allowing cases to be reinstated or adjudicated on merits when defaults are technical or excusable. Proper procedural safeguards and timely actions are critical to ensuring effective adjudication and avoiding miscarriages of justice.
