Under Indian law, the landlord has a strong case for eviction due to non-payment of rent. The tenant’s failure to pay rent both to the landlord and the court strengthens the landlord’s claim.

My family has been facing a legal dispute over a property since 2012. After winning the case in court, we obtained possession in 2013, but the other party vanished. We finally tracked them down after repeated attempts, but they appealed the verdict, even though the time limit had passed. The court surprisingly allowed the appeal, claiming the other party was not given a chance to respond. However, the truth is, they were given multiple opportunities to appear in court but chose not to. This feels unfair, as they should not be rewarded for their own inaction. What legal options do I have to ensure justice is served?
