Dear Experts,
My uncle purchased three plots in a panchayat property @2015 in Hosur.Later in 2017, the developer applied for HNTDA approval and changed the design of all the property. My uncle with other three buyers filed a writ petition in Madras HC. Due course one of the petitioner was expired last year.Should we proceed with the existing case or should we notpress and file a fresh petition?

You can proceed with the present case, but you have to inform the court that one of the petitioners has died.

Well opined and advised by experts, I agree.
You should inform the Court qua death of the petitioner and substitution of his/her LRs and proceed through your lawyer.
You should not expect a miracle from experts on this platform on the basis of limited facts posted by you.
