What is the limitation period to have the legal representative of a deceased plaintiff made a party under the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
The prescribed period is 90 days from the plaintiff's death under Article 120 of the Limitation Act, 1963. This is the period for bringing the legal representative on record where substitution is required. It differs from Article 121's 60-day period for an application to set aside abatement, which begins from abatement rather than from death.
