Dear Sir,
Legal Implications of Opposite Party Absence
If it is a Motor Accident Claim (MACT / M.V. Act case):
Courts usually proceed ex-parte against absent parties if they fail to appear repeatedly.
Ex-parte means your claim can be heard and decided even without the opposite party.
Court may issue:
Ex-parte notice / orders to proceed
Adjournment warnings before deciding ex-parte
Insurance Company:
If opposite party is insured, the insurance company may appear.
Even if the person is absent, insurance company can be made liable under the MV Act.
