Gujarat High Court Civil Manual (subordinate court practice), 1960
When processes are returned unserved a considerable time before the date fixed for hearing, it should be the duty of the Nazir to give out the processes for re-service if there is sufficient time before the hearing. General instructions should be issued to lawyers that they should ascertain a week before the date of hearing which of the processes are returned unserved, and then ask for the services of a special process-server to have them served at once. If they fail to do so, the parties should not be allowed to apply for a fresh service on the date of hearing.
