Hearing of application
Full Text
(1) The Court, before which an application under any of the foregoing rules of this Order is pending, may fix a day for the hearing of the application.
(2) Where on the day fixed or on any other day to which the hearing may be adjourned the applicant does not appear when the case is called on for hearing, the Court may make an order that the application be dismissed.
(3) Where the applicant appears and the opposite party to whom the notice has been issued by the Court does not appear, the Court may hear the application ex parte and pass such order as it thinks fit.
Explanation.—An application referred to in sub-rule (1) includes a claim or objection made under rule 58.
Plain English Summary
Regulates the hearing of execution applications (including Rule 58 claims): authorizes dismissal for default if the applicant fails to appear, and ex parte hearing if the respondent defaults after notice.
Key Legal Elements
- Hearing Date Fixation: Mandatory notice of hearing date to parties.
- Dismissal for Default (Sub-rule 2): Non-appearance of applicant when called on for hearing.
- Ex Parte Proceeding (Sub-rule 3): Adverse orders passed ex parte against defaulting respondent.
- Broad Scope: Explicitly includes claims and objections under Rule 58.
Practical Note
Dismissal for Default in Execution: When an execution application or Rule 58 objection is dismissed for default under Rule 105(2), do not file an appeal or a fresh execution petition right away. Move an application for restoration under Rule 106 within 30 days.
