A.Hi,
Yes, it is absolutely important to let the court know of the death or absence of his client by the court. It forms an unavoidable part of the factual matrix of the case.

A.Hi,
The duty of the ideal lawyer involves everything that has to do between the court and his client. Therefore informing the court of the death, cannot be overlooked.

A.Yes, it is the duty of the lawyer to let the Court know that the Appellant has expired but only when the lawyer is aware about the fact. But even if the Appellant is dead that does not mean the case necessarily has to be dismissed.

A.Your lawyer comes daily in morning to check whether you are alive ?
or
your family will inform your lawyer first that you expired.
Because he have to immediately inform the court abt your expiry.

A.If you are aware of the appellant's death and the lawyer hasn't done anything, you may bring the fact to the attention of the court. You can also file an application through your lawyer for including the legal representatives of the appellant to the case.
