The Principle That Courts Do Not Act In Vain

In a recent appellate case in which our law office acted for the successful party, the Appellate Court dismissed the appeal on, inter alia, the ground that "Courts do not act in vain".

In the appeal case, under consideration, the Appellant – (an intervener) – filed an appeal against a decision of a first Instant Court, dismissing the Appellant's application to set aside chabra freezing orders and a receivership order, but in the meantime, the ex parte freezing order and the receivership had become absolute – (due to the non-appearance of the Respondent) – and the assets under receivership, had been sold by the receiver, pursuant to an order of the 1st Instance Court and the proceeds of sale, were deposited with Court.
