I have a property that is in the name of my father and his brothers. All of them have passed away, my cousins are staying in that property and aren't willing to share it with me, I filed a partition suit against them, but they did not even turn up at court on the dates provided. Now, who would bear the chargers of the legal notice publications and is there any other option to settle this other than mutual agreement?

The Plaintiff in the Partition suit will have to bear the expenses for publication etc., however you could be considered as costs of the suit at the time of passing final decree in such suit. There is no other manner to settle this, other than by mutual agreement. The civil suit for partition is the right way forward.
