Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed a dispute regarding the setting aside of an ex parte decree under Order IX Rule 13 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The Court held that the appellants provided satisfactory reasons for their lack of knowledge about the proceedings, justifying the revival of the suit. The Court affirmed the lower court's decision to accept the application for revival, subject to costs, thereby allowing the appellants to contest the suit.
