Can I reopen my closed court case after 4 months?

Is it possible to restore a closed case file after four months? My lawyer did not follow up properly, and I was unaware that my case was closed due to missing documents. I now wish to apply for restoration. Is it possible after four months?

You can file a petition to restore your case even after 4 months if you explain the delay with a valid reason, like your lawyer’s negligence or not knowing the case was closed. The court may accept this if your reason is genuine. It is best to change your lawyer and act quickly. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
