Civil case filed for an injunction/stay order is dormant since 4 years.

Legal Advice Needed

Plaintiff A has filed a civil case for a stay order on Defendant B’s property and his tenants. Plaintiff A wants B to stop collecting rents, making changes to the property etc. Plaintiff A has submitted a 90 page document similar to a masala movie script alleging and defaming defendant B without a single evidentiary proof of wrongdoing. Zero documentation.

Currently the case has been inactive/dormant since 4 years. We were never served summons. We found out about the case through a common relative. The lawyer for the plaintiff A has stopped showing up since 1 year.

  1. Why is the judge not dismissing the case? Will he dismiss the case?

  2. Can he keep this case on the back burner and submit proof later, as and when he procures it?

  3. If no one from the defendant side is showing up will the judge eventually dismiss the case?

  4. Can an injunction order proceed ex parte?
