Dharam Dev and Ors.), whereby he contends that the rejection of the application dated 17-2-2003 filed by the present petitioner who is the defendant 2 to lead evidence has been rejected and that this would constitute decision of the suit without affording an opportunity to the 2nd defendant to lead evidence. First of all, the facts and circumstances in the two decisions cited before me are different and those principles will not assist the petitioner in this case.2. The suit is of the year 1980.

M.F. Saldanha, J. 1. We have heard the learned Government Advocate on merits only with a view to ascertain as to whether any useful purpose will be served by retaining this appeal on file.2. More than one year has passed since the notice was issued and we must say to the credit of the office of the learned Government Advocate and the concerned Police, that as many as nine attempts have been made to trace out the accused and to serve the notice on him. The efforts indicate that the accused is a known anti-social element, the Police have used the word 'vagabond' and that he has no fixed place of residence, that despite diligent enquiries, the Police were not able to trace him and that it does appear from the investigations that he has left Bangalore and gone to Bombay. Efforts were made through their counterpart but the Bombay Police have not been able to either apprehend the accused or serve notice on him. Under these circumstances, no useful purpose will be served by retaining the appe...
