The dismissal for default is not decree a petition to set is aside is maintiainble under Order9 Rule 2 for the failure to serve the summons. A fresh suit is maintiainble. Whereas in any other case Rule 9 of Order 9 prevents fresh suit on the same matter. Further Order XLIII Rule 1(d) provides for the CMA on the orders on Order 9 rule petition hence the appeal simpliciter can not preferred, against the order of exparte dismissal
