Court's Reasoning

The court's reasoning is purely administrative: to ensure all parties have a chance to file their responses and to keep the case moving towards substantive hearing. The Registrar granted time to file counter affidavits to ensure due process and proper representation from all concerned state respondents, especially those who had appeared. For other served respondents who had not appeared, the court noted their non-appearance to proceed with the matter.

Precedential Assessment

Non-Binding (Procedural)

This is a routine procedural order by a Registrar, not a substantive judgment by a Bench, and therefore holds no precedential value for legal principles.

Tips for Legal Practice

1.Ensure timely filing of counter affidavits when granted time by the court to avoid adverse orders.
2.Monitor case status closely, especially regarding notice service, as non-appearance can lead to ex-parte proceedings or other procedural disadvantages.
3.Registrar Court orders primarily deal with procedural aspects such as affidavits, service, and listing, forming critical steps in litigation progression.
