Judge absent and appeal timeline ending..

Go thru the rules on ‘Pronouncement of Judgment’ on respective HC website…

The court has not agreed to your contention on ‘Forged sale deed’ and the judgment is pending for signature………..

Make an application for certified copy f the judgment and keep the receipt.

 

There are many threads on 'Pronouncement of Judgment' at LCI that you can search and even download the judgments, guidelines by Apex Court..

Judge ordered to register the land in favour of other party even though we contested saying the said deed is forged. He said the said registration needed to be executed within 90 days of pronouncement of the judgement. But now with out signing the judgement went on leave and not sure when he is going to come back We have applied for a certified copy and are still to receive it because the judge sign is pending.... What is the best way to proceed sir?

The time limit for any legal process begins from the date you get certified copies of the judgment/order/decree. The judgment is supposed to be pronounced only after the same is signed and stamped by the judge, even though you were told by the judge the order before he left for leave without signing the order and judgment or decree. You need not bother about 90 days period as its not your fault and period spend in obtaining the certified copies is exempted for any further legal process in the case.

Hope you/your lawyer has properly checked/examined that Judge has passed/signed an

(Interim) order/Judgment on dated……… as in your query ……..dictated IT/signed the draft copy/delivered the judgment ……………and IT becomes operative …, and you have applied for the certified copy of order dated………..as in query and have the receipt……

If an order is pronounced in open court then Judge might have signed IT.

If the order/judgment has not been signed, certified copy is not issued.

For pronouncement of judgment go thru the Apex Court judgments, guidelines, HC rules……….

I have posted these in detail in many threads and you can download.

You can also ask your own lawyer or go for 2nd opinion in person from a very able Senior LOCAL counsel of unshakable repute and integrity specializing in such matters and well versed with rule and having successful track record with all related docs …..

You may go thru the following case, which is although somewhat different ………….but touches upon ……………….

‘"Whether a judgment which has been pronounced in the open Court but has remained unsigned due to …………………..is a valid and binding judgment under the Code of Civil Procedure"’

Himachal Pradesh High Court

Smt. Phool Kumari (Since ... vs Nandu Ram Etc.

Before you get carried away, mind IT……..IT is not judgment of your case…

 

Remain after and on heels of the Lawyer whom you have engaged and paid, to satisfy you.

If the lawyer is not responding or satisfying you verbally/in person, and /or if still you have doubts ,send your query in writing even if by email….and keep the irrefutable record to mind your own interest.

If you are not satisfied without any hesitation go for 2nd opinion in person from LOCAL counsel as already suggested above or change your lawyer…
