Explanation using Example

Imagine a scenario where three siblings, A, B, and C, are joint plaintiffs in a property dispute against their distant relative. Due to work commitments, sibling B is unable to attend the court proceedings regularly. As per Rule 12 of The Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, sibling B can provide a written authorization allowing sibling A to appear, plead, or act on their behalf in the court. This authorization would need to be signed by B and filed with the court to be valid.
