summon of the case

Arati Gawde (Querist) 14 March 2010 This query is : Resolved
If no one is present in house (including the accused of the case) to receive summon of the case then in that case is it binding on that accused to remain present in court on that particular date if he unofficially know the date of case? What will be consequences if he not present in a court ?

In the given facts, he is not expected to come present on the date of hearing, even if he unofficially know about date of hearing. Official summoning of the accused are necessary.

If the summions are not received then accused is not expected to come present on the date.

i agree with my Ld. Friends....there must be something on record to prove that the accused has been duly served.

On criminal side, if an accused wishes to appear on the date of hearing even based upon his unofficial knowledge, he can do so and defend his case. Then in that event, Court would record his presence and ignore the returned cover/summons and will proceed with the case.
