Must hearing notices be served on each date of adjournment?

It is perhaps one of the core aspects of litigation for hearing notices to be served on the other party. It is indeed rooted in the principle of fair hearing which is the guaranteed under the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 ( as amended). The plaintiff / claimant / Appellant / Applicant who is to move the court may however be faced with situations where non-service of hearing notices would stall the proceedings.
