Case Summary: N. Athappan v. Rahila Saleem On 04/12/2000, the Supreme Court set aside the ex-parte decree dated 24.6.1997 and the High Court's rejection of the appellants' application to set it aside. The trial court was directed to proceed with the case on merits, allowing both parties to lead evidence. The appellants waived their right to cross-examine the deceased plaintiff-witness (PW-1) and agreed to pay Rs. 5,000 as costs; the respondent was permitted to withdraw the Rs. 1,50,000 deposited by appellants upon furnishing security and undertaking to refund within four weeks if directed.
