It follows, therefore, that if the Court can deal with the matter in controversy so far as regards the rights and interests of the appellant and the respondents other than the deceased respondent, it has to proceed with the appeal and decide it. It is only when it is not possible for the Court to deal with such matters, that it will have to refuse to proceed further with the appeal and therefore dismiss it." 13- ekuuh; jktLFkku mPp U;k;ky; us Hkh U;kf;d n`"VkUr ,vkbZvkj 1961 jktLFkku i`"B 89 esa ;g vfHkfu/kkZfjr fd;k gS fd& "The general rule is that on an appeal by one of several plaintiffs or defendants, the Appellate Court can reverse or vary the decree of the trial Court only in favour of the party appealing. Order 41, Rule 4 provides an exception to this general rule and gives the Court power to pass an appropriate decree in favour of even the non-appealing plaintiffs or defendants where the requirement of that rule is satisfied. This requirement is that the decree appealed from should proceed on any ground common to all the plaintiffs or to all the defendants. It is not necessary that all the grounds upon which the lower Court proceeds should be common to all the parties. In such a case, an appeal by one is virtually treated as an appeal by all, though they may not be parties to the appeal." 14- blh izdkj U;kf;d n`"VkUr ,-vkbZ-vkj- 1959 iatkc i`"B 555 esa Hkh ;g izfrikfnr fd;k gS fd& "Order 41, Rule 4 is an enabling provision and empowers Courts to exercise discretion in favour of persons who have not appealed against the decree provided the decisions proceeds on grounds common to the appellants and the non-appealing persons.

In fact it is only just and proper that a person who has not appealed or who has not been impleaded as a pro forma respondent may be given relief by Courts on any ground common to all the plaintiffs or the defendants so that full effect may be given to the decision of the Court.
