JUDGMENT : C.K. Thakker, J. 1. Admitted. Mr. R.N Shah, learned counsel for Respondent Nos. 3 to 6 and Mr. P.B Bhatt, learned AGP for Respondent Nos. 1, 2, 7 and 8 waive service of notice of admission. In the facts and circumstances of the case, appeal is taken up for final hearing today. 2. This appeal is filed against an order passed by the learned Single Judge in Civil Application No. 484 of 1996 in Special Civil Application No. 2146 of 1986, decided on July 24, 1997. That application was filed by the appellant-applicants for bringing heirs and legal representatives of deceased Shanabhai Kadiabhai on record. The petition was of 1986. After the petitioner died, his heirs and legal representatives filed the above application to bring them on record. The said application was rejected by the learned Single Judge. It appears that other persons were also on record. As Civil Application was rejected and heirs were not permitted to be brought on record, the main matter i.e., Special Civil Application No. 2146 of 1986 stood automatically dismissed. It is against that order that the present Letters Patent Appeal is filed by the Appellants. At the time of preliminary hearing, notice was issued for admission as well as for final hearing which was made returnable on September 16, 1997. 3. We have heard the learned counsel for parties. In the facts and circumstances of the case, the order passed by the learned Single Judge requires to be set aside. Apart from the fact that ordinarily in such matters, application to bring on record heirs and legal representatives ought not to have been dismissed, even otherwise also, as per the settled law, if other person is already on record, it can be said that estate was sufficiently represented. In such cases, the petition does not abate. This Letters Patent Appeal is, therefore, allowed. Order passed by the learned Single Judge is set-aside. 4. In our opinion, Civil Application deserves to be granted and accordingly, Civil Application No. 484 of 1996 is allowed. Prayer is granted. Necessary corrections will be carried out on or before November 20, 1997. 5. Special Civil Application No. 2146 of 1986 will now be placed before the learned Single Judge for disposal in accordance with law. Appeal is accordingly allowed with no order as to costs. 6.
