Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that under Section 100 of the Civil Procedure Code, the High Court cannot interfere with findings of fact made by the District Judge in a second appeal if no question of law is raised. The Court found that the plaintiff had established her ownership rights over the property, and the High Court's reversal of the District Court's partition findings was incorrect. The appeal was allowed, and the question of rights between the appellant and respondent No. 1 was left open.
