Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the High Court erred in interfering with the findings of fact in a second appeal under Section 100 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908, as there was no substantial question of law involved. The Court emphasized that the High Court must formulate a question of law before entertaining such appeals. The Court upheld the First Appellate Court's conclusion that the properties were self-acquired by R and not joint family properties, thus allowing the defendants' appeal.
